About this home

This elegant, stately home is ideally located half-way between Belmont Ctr and Cushing Sq. on a lovely corner lot. This gracious brick home with slate roof offers oversized rooms and loads of natural light. Enter the home from the front door and be greeted by a large foyer and center staircase. The flow of the home is ideal for entertaining with a left turn toward the front to back living room and the double-sided fireplace that brightens both the LR and the office or a right turn into the dining room and sunroom. Toward the back of the house is a large eat-in-kitchen and 1/2 bath. Upstairs you will find 4 generous sized bedrooms-a primary with ensuite bath, one with a built-in office attached, and 2 others as well as a family bath. The lower level was recently finished and offers a big play space with wet bar as well as a laundry room, 1/2 bath and endless storage. The back, fenced-in garden patio, which seems more like a 3-season room is impressive and serene. Brick/Slate Garage.
