Colonial

Fall in love with this classic 1925 stone colonial that has been lovingly updated for today's buyer. The charm and character of the original home shine through but the overall feeling is one of crispness and light . Accessed from the stylish center hall is a striking living room with its custom fireplace. An adjacent sunroom/family room has three walls of floor-to-ceiling windows, not to mention some exceedingly attractive garden views. The large dining room is equally spectacular with its architect-designed custom built-ins and fireplace. A modern, updated kitchen with granite countertops and high-end Dacor appliances leads to a separate laundry room and a small mud room. Upstairs the master bedroom is accompanied by a large four-piece bath with marble floors and jetted tub. A second floor porch beckons invitingly. Two additional bedrooms, a hall bath, and an office/study (possible bedroom) complete this floor, while two large bedrooms and a pair of nicely updated baths round out the top floor. The house comes with five-zone heating, four-zone cooling, and considerable storage space in the unfinished basement. It's an easy walk to the park, the train (Chestnut Hill West), local schools and a multitude of shops and restaurants, but you may be reluctant to leave this home and its surrounding grounds.
