Listing broker remarks

RARE WATERFRONT OPPORTUNITY on Upper Mystic Lake with spectacular sunset views! Tucked away on Lakeview Terrace, this special 1910 home offers a combination rarely found in Winchester: waterfront living, privacy, beautiful southwest light and exceptional convenience. Gracious rooms, period details and quality craftsmanship give the home wonderful character, while its generous layout offers an exciting opportunity to update and create something truly special. The home features 5-6 bedrooms, a home office and expansive living spaces designed to take advantage of the lake views. The kitchen, renovated some years ago, was thoughtfully positioned so the view can be enjoyed while preparing meals. An unfinished lower level with high ceilings offers additional possibilities. Just steps from Wedgemere Commuter Rail Station, 1/2 mile to Shannon Beach and less than a mile to Winchester Center via the Tri-Community Bikeway. A remarkable setting, beautiful sunsets and an opportunity that may not come again for years. Don't delay your visit!— Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Commonwealth Real Estate
