About this home

At first glance, you see a lovely Belmont colonial set on a picturesque street. Upon exploring further, you find even more - a current interpretation of the traditional. Having been expanded several times, the current owners set out to pull the house together to make it more cohesive and functional. They opened walls, adjusted staircases, and updated the kitchen, bathrooms and more. As a professional chef, she cared about the kitchen, selecting top-of-the-line appliances and designing abundant counter space to cook and bake. The dining room seats a crowd, with a cozy fireplace & original butler’s pantry. 5 bedrooms, 4.5 baths and an abundance of comfortable spots to gather provides everyone their place to “live”. The master with its original fireplace was enhanced by a gorgeous master bath, walk-in closet & private deck–a perfect perch for star gazing. A large secluded yard, deck & fire pit were often used for entertaining. A rarity with an attached, direct-access 2-car garage.
