About this home

Prominently set in Chestnut Hill, within the Ward School district, this stately eleven-room Colonial Revival-style residence offers a floor plan well-suited for entertaining as well as everyday living. Built in 1930, period details adorn the 4,290 square foot interior. There are five bedrooms, three full and three-half bathrooms. The elegant foyer leads to a front-to-back living room with a large fireplace, built-in lit bookcases, and French doors out to the yard; a dining room with pretty molding; and an updated eat-in kitchen with center island and breakfast area. Additional features include a large office, wood-paneled family room, temperature-controlled wine room, solar panels, an attic with good ceiling height, and a basement with a fireplace, bedroom, and semi-finished space. The beautifully manicured grounds provide a wonderful setting complete with an enclosed side yard with a lovely, covered brick patio and well-established perennial garden. There is a two-car garage.
