Listing broker remarks

Stately Victorian in the heart of West Roxbury. From the moment you set eyes on this freshly painted, turn-of-the-century home, you will appreciate its truly special character. A welcoming covered front porch leads you into a classic entry vestibule, where exceptional historic detail immerses you. The main level features beautifully maintained hardwood floors, gorgeous original wood doors and moldings, and a grand staircase. The spacious layout flows seamlessly from the double parlor (formal living and sitting rooms) into an ample dining room, leading to a modern kitchen complete with a stand-alone island and breakfast bar. A convenient three-quarter bath sits near the rear exit, which opens to a pavered parking pad and back deck featuring a relaxing hot tub. Upstairs, the second floor offers three bedrooms—including a generous primary bedroom, and a full bath. The open plan third floor provides a flexible space perfect for a fourth bedroom or home office. Full-sized laundry is in the large dry basement.
