Ideally situated in Brookline Village, this magnificent 1880 Colonial sit on a private 11,937 sf lot and has been fabulously renovated while giving special attention to preserving its extraordinary original details. A dramatic 2-story covered front porch leads to the grand foyer, which opens to the entertainment-sized dining room with a fireplace. Across the foyer is the wonderful living room, which is a mirror image of the dining room and accesses the bright family room. At the back of the house is the stunning 2009-renovated eat-in kitchen with the top-of-the-line AGA range as its focal point. Off of the kitchen is a full bath that leads to the 2nd staircase, creating a guest suite with 2 bedrooms on the 2nd level. The 2nd level has 4 more bedrooms, one with an en suite bath, along with laundry and the 3rd full bath. On the 3rd level is the 2011-renovated master suite with a large dressing room and a stunning bathroom. This spectacular home includes central air and a 2 car garage.
