About this home
Sited at the rear of its lovely lot, this contemporary townhouse is on a tree-lined stretch of coveted Fayerweather Street. Architect-designed in 2019, it features a private back yard, off-street parking, and a superb layout over four floors. The first floor glows with abundant sunlight, with windows on three sides, beautiful oak floors, and an open-plan living room, dining room, and kitchen. Upstairs is a full bath, a well-proportioned bedroom, and a gorgeous main suite with good views, a walk-in closet, and a herringbone-floor bathroom with tub, frameless glass shower, and double vanity. The top floor features a large bedroom/office with closet, while downstairs holds a laundry room, home office/TV room, and guest suite with full bath. Mature plantings are kept healthy with an irrigation system, and a flat lawn, bluestone patio, and storage shed make for great outdoor living. Fresh Pond is close by, along with La Saison Bakery, Whole Foods, and Huron Village. Offers due noon 9/16.
