About this home

Built in 1926 on Fisher Hill, this impressive Colonial Style home has been occupied by the present owner since 1939. The house, with two-story pillars framing the entrance, graciously crowns a terraced hill. Beautiful, untouched original detail - including Arts and Crafts era tiled floors, gumwood wainscoting and moldings, beamed ceilings and hardwood floors. Original bathrooms are well-maintained and the 2001 kitchen is well-designed. On the second floor, there are three family bedrooms and an exceptionally large master bedroom. The finished third floor consists of two bedrooms and a bath and the basement offers unfinished open space. In the rear is a level yard, patio and 2-car garage. The property is located a block from the Runkle School, and is a short walk to Brookline High School, the T and shops. This house represents a rare opportunity to purchase an elegant home with magnificent detail in a fabulous location. A great value.
