Located in the Washington Square neighborhood of Brookline, this historic Back-Bay style Victorian was built in the Georgian Revival style and has maintained many of the original details. Originally named "The Parkman Terrace" and one of 6 attached row houses on Garrison Rd, this style of urban development was the first of its kind in Brookline in the late 1800s. This eleven-room 1890s single-family brick row house is ideally located on a popular tree-lined street. Beautifully maintained and updated with exquisite original detail, this special home features 11 ft ceilings, six fireplaces, a grand staircase, pocket doors, exposed brick, and multiple built-ins. Fabulous entertaining rooms plus generous bedrooms, and a renovated au pair or in-law suite in the lower level with a separate entrance that leads out to a private, fenced-in patio. Close to the Green line, D and C, Longwood Medical, Runkle School, BHS, and all shops and restaurants of Washington Square.
