Classic charm meets modern convenience in Washington Square! This exceptional, voluminous 2-bedroom, 1-full-bath residence is situated on the quiet, raised first floor of an intimate, professionally managed 4-unit building. The home features brand-new, oversized windows that flood the bedrooms with bright, uplifting air and light, combining classic historic character with premium updates, including soaring high ceilings, meticulously restored original woodwork, and beautifully refinished hardwood floors throughout. Flowing inward past a traditional, well-proportioned entry gallery, the interior has been expertly plastered and painted, complemented by a separate, large kitchen featuring new appliances and access to a beautiful large porch. Additional highlights include a completely gut-renovated full bathroom with contemporary finishes, central A/C and heating, and the rare bonus of two dedicated parking spaces. For added convenience, the property includes a dedicated washer and dryer in the basement for this apartment's exclusive use, along with large private basement storage. Perfectly positioned on a serene street just moments from the T, local shops, and neighborhood dining. Exceptional quality and craftsmanship throughout—a must-see!
Corey Farm / Salisbury Road, located between Beacon Street and Route 9, is a residential and leafy Brookline neighborhood with curving lanes and a garden-like streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Washington Square triangle at Beacon Street and Washington Street, where cafés, bakeries, and small storefronts keep the sidewalks active. Early-20th-century single-family homes and brick apartment buildings sit behind mature trees and stone walls. Griggs Park adds a green pause near the trolley line. The Coolidge Corner Theatre and Brookline Booksmith anchor nearby cultural routines. Clear Flour Bread and Café Fixe set a local, detail-minded food scene.

Local insights from Redfin agents
Brookline will continue to be a Seller's market for the foreseeable future, driven by restrictive zoning laws that have limited increases in housing production and a stable population with relatively low turnover. This has resulted in a massive...
supply/demand imbalance that is unlikely to change.
