This hidden gem sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on Brookline's Corey hill. Built by the owner in 1963, this home has been loved by the same family for over 50 years! With plenty of space spread out over three levels, you can move right in and begin making memories of your own. Curl up by the picture window and take in the view. Create a movie den or gathering space in the partially finished lower level. Entertain in the dining area, hang out in your den, or head upstairs to enjoy the peacefulness of having only 1 neighbor living beside you in the middle of the city. This home is conveniently close to major T stops, allowing you to park in your driveway and not have to worry about where to leave the car when venturing out into Boston.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.

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.
