So very special! This charming 4 bedroom, 2 full bath bungalow in the very heart of Brookline sits on a spacious corner lot with a private driveway, detached garage, beautiful backyard, epic front porch and more charm than you'll know what to do with! Original leaded glass windows, turned staircase, French doors and trim work throughout hard to replicate make this home so special. Don't be deceived by the exterior profile- this home has tons of space, larger room sizes and great versatility depending on your needs. If you need one level living, this could be a great option for you! As soon as you pull up, you fall in love! The open front porch greets you with 2 different seating areas, a vestibule entry with sidelights, wrapped in the original dentil molding trim work and beautiful landscaping that frames the home. The main level of this home is beautiful! The room you enter from the porch is very large and is currently used as the living room and dining room, with a classic Wissahickon Schist stone surround gas fireplace and gorgeous oak hardwood floors with a walnut inlay. Also on the first floor is another large room that could be a dining room, another living room as it's being used now, 2 bedrooms (one with brand new carpet and built-ins), a full bath and an eat-in kitchen with breakfast room. The kitchen has tons of windows offering great natural light, corian countertops and a door leading you out to the backyard, driveway and garage. Upstairs you will find a very large full bath that includes a large soaking tub, a shower, neutral tilework and beadboard. 2 more bedrooms on the 2nd floor, one of which houses a great laundry set up for convenience. The basement of the home offers a large unfinished space for now- great for storage. Enjoy entertaining both on the front porch, the back deck which is right off the kitchen and in the level backyard. The walkability factor is wonderful! Take advantage of your front row seat to township parades and festivals along Darby Rd, a quick walk to schools, parks, shopping and dining along Brookline Blvd in just minutes. This home has been so cherished and loved. You walk in an instantly feel connected to it.
