Sensational location in the highly coveted Cottage Farm neighborhood of North Brookline! This stately colonial home is located between Mason Square and Knyvet Square, two beautiful green spaces which make this urban neighborhood even more bucolic. With easy access points to Cambridge, Back Bay and Fenway, residents enjoy the best of Boston right from their front door. A spacious front foyer gives way to a grand living space with a fire place and windows on three sides. An adjacent seating area offers an easy walk out to the back yard. The kitchen has been updated with large island, commercial gas range and excellent storage. Access out to the side patio is quick and easy for entertaining or grilling on Summer nights. Upstairs, there are five very spacious bedrooms and three full baths! This layout is so seldom found at this market range. The third floor is a great open space perfect for a game room or media area. One of the side gardens has a beautiful brick privacy wall and plantings!
