Absolutely charming 10 room, 5 bedroom, 2.5 bath Victorian, built in 1900, features 3,683 square feet of sunny, generous living space. Plentiful architectural period details include built-in seats, floor-to-ceiling bookcases, four fireplaces, pocket doors, diamond-pane and leaded glass windows, tall ceilings, & gleaming wood floors. The elegant entry foyer boasts a fireplace and handsome main staircase with decorative scrolling. In addition to living room and dining rooms, each with fireplaces, the first floor also offers family room and very special octagonal three-season sunroom overlooking a private yard. The kitchen was renovated in 2006, and features granite counters, maple cabinets and stainless appliances. There is a separate area with a built-in work desk and mud entry with built-in bench. The lavatory features a retrofitted, orignal mahogany vanity with copper sink. On the second floor, there are five generous rooms, walk-in closet perfect to relocate laundry and full bath. Each room offers a fun combination of nooks, crannies, angles and architectural surprises. The third floor offers two additional bedrooms and a full bath, remodeled in 2006. In addition to new 200-amp electric service, a new gas-fired forced air furnace was also installed in 2006. Located in the High Street Hill historic district, also known as Pill Hill, this tree-lined street is lined with architecturally distinctive homes and surrounded by parkland designed by Frederik Law Olmsted. Steps from all the best restaurants and shops in Brookline Village, public transportation, the Lincoln elementary school, and Brookline High School. A short distance to Longwood medical area hospitals, and minutes to downtown Boston.
