Rarely available on historic Beals Street, this circa 1905 single family home set on a sycamore tree-lined street in the heart of Coolidge Corner. Smartly surrounded by mature flowering plants, this location awaits a contractor or end user to update for today's living. The front patio welcomes you thru a vestibule to the stately living room with bay windows & fireplace. The turn of the century grand staircase precedes the dining room, powder room and large eat-in kitchen with a second staircase in back leading to the four BRs and two full baths, including the main BR with fireplace. The 9 ft ceilings and skylight create a light and airy space throughout. Exit the kitchen via the back steps into a private garden area patio. The unfinished basement provides ample storage space or room to create your wine cellar. Many charming and historic features in this home. Don't miss the amazing opportunity awaiting the next owner of this special property.
