On the fringes of Deering Highlands, this Dutch colonial/cottage style home has been lovingly restored over the past 30 years with modern amenities while retaining the 1900's charm. While many amenities, shops, restaurants, and schools are nearby, when you return home you'll immediately feel relaxed. The deep front porch surrounded by the lush professional landscape welcomes you and your guests. The beautiful entry and stained glass are gentle reminders of the quality and style of this home. Hardwood floors throughout the main levels, French doors to the sunny living room which is open to the dining room and a beautifully updated kitchen with a breakfast nook make day to day living a breeze. The pretty stairway leading to the second-floor bedrooms and bath set the stage for relaxation, and relax you can, as there's also a beautiful tree-top deck that has provided many peaceful moments on the hammock or just sitting down to read a book. If you need work-at-home space, the third floor bedroom provides a peaceful retreat. The easy to maintain exterior, replacement windows, roofing, siding, updated boiler and new chimney liner allows you to enjoy the home and your city lifestyle without worrying about any immediate repairs. Pet friendly fenced in yard with a dedicated pet area or play area, too! Lots to love here. Park on Beacon Street. The home has two driveways, one on Beacon and one on Brighton.
