23 Brooklawn Terrace, Lynn

Listing broker remarks

This is one of the prettiest homes in Lynn! 23 Brooklawn Terrace lives beautifully, with well-proportioned rooms, high ceilings, hardwood flooring throughout and distinctive period details. Located on a quiet street near Flax Pond and only 1.5 miles from the ocean, this is your gateway to amazing recreation, beaches, nature and the North Shore, yet convenient to the commuter rail taking you into Boston’s North Station. Built in 1915, the home’s enclosed front porch is perfect for lazy days and leads into a gracious foyer with antique folding french doors. The classic living room has a bow window and a broad cased opening into the airy dining room with built-in china cabinet —a room perfect for holidays, family meals, crafting, homework or chilling out on your laptop. The cheery kitchen features bright green wood cabinets, fresh quartz countertops, newer stainless steel appliances, a gas stove and lots of storage to please any chef. The first-floor half bath delights with playful wallpaper and an updated vanity. Upstairs, the primary bedroom has a closet with a built-in cabinet to keep clothing and accessories organized, while two more bedrooms provide peaceful retreats. The full bath has an updated white vanity with granite countertop, classic pink tile and a tub/shower combination. The immaculate unfinished basement offers side-by-side laundry, a second refrigerator, storage shelves, exercise space and a wall-mounted TV with a hip wood accent wall for fun watch parties. Outside, the front garden features a fruit-bearing pear tree—take a look when you visit! Perennials fill the front and back yards, and the 3 car driveway leads to a two-car garage that has doubled as a workshop for the past few owners. Admire the hydrangea tree and hanging vines framing the garage’s antique doors as you pass through the white picket fence into a charming backyard. The fenced in yard unfolds over three levels: a Japanese maple tree graces the top level, the second level offers perimeter gardens and room for seating or a fire pit, and the broad lower level provides plenty of room for play. The garage’s lower level offers additional storage. With wonderful period character, flexible spaces and inviting gardens, this is a home that feels special from the moment you arrive!— Leading Edge Real Estate
