About this home

Situated in the heart of Fisher Hill, this timeless 6 bed, 5 full and 3 half bath Jacobethan influenced residence offers stylish entertaining with modern family living. Built in 1900, the architecture is highlighted by a gracious 2 story foyer, 6 fireplaces, stunning crown moldings, and soaring ceilings. Thoroughly renovated in 2014, the layout of the 8,475 sqft home is designed for large scale entertaining, combining sophistication and elegance with family comfort. While the period details were thoughtfully restored, the home has since been exquisitely designed and decorated. A 3-car detached garage completes the property. The gorgeous .65 acre landscaped lot offers a quiet, estate-like setting with the convenience of city living. The house is steps from Runkle School, close to Brookline High, and central to other top area schools. Ideal for commuters, this location provides a quick drive to Boston, Cambridge or Rt. 128. The Green ‘D’ and "C" lines are a few blocks away.
