This is a unique opportunity for someone with a vision to own a slice of history and elegance! Presenting a one-of-a-kind mansion, built in 1908, located in the Cottage Farm Historic District of Brookline. This property exemplifies sophistication, beauty, and charm, standing as a testament to the grandeur of the past.
Designed in the striking French Beaux-Arts style by the renowned Boston architectural firm Kilham & Hopkins, this mansion boasts an array of exquisite features. From the mahogany millwork to the soaring high ceilings, every detail reflects the opulent craftsmanship of the early 20th century. The home’s dramatic curved staircase serves as a focal point, leading to stately-proportioned rooms that exude a timeless elegance. French pocket doors add an air of sophistication, while built-in window seats offer cozy nooks for relaxation.
The oversized kitchen, complete with a pantry prep area, provides ample space for culinary exploration, and the convenience of an elevator adds to the home’s luxury. The exterior, a harmonious blend of stucco and stone, encapsulates the grandeur of the era.
Parking is a breeze with garage parking and an additional deeded parking space. This residence offers its new owners the rare chance to design and execute a renovation that honors the home’s historical significance while infusing it with modern amenities, creating a unique generational home.
The location is simply fantastic, offering convenient access to Whole Foods, Tatte Bakery, Down Under Yoga Studio, and other shops on Beacon at St. Mary’s. Its proximity to the Back Bay, Longwood Medical Area, Fenway Park, Coolidge Corner, and Boston University adds to its appeal.
Currently offered ‘As is’, this property not only merits but truly deserves a thoughtful renovation. The roof has been replaced recently in December 2019, making this a sound investment. This is more than a home; it’s a canvas for creating a legacy.
