285 Fairmount Ave Boston MA 02136
Can you imagine hearing birds chirping and looking out at a grassy backyard… in Boston? Perched atop Fairmount Hill, this 3200+ sq.ft. home sited on over a half-acre feels like suburban living sited a half mile to the commuter rail. Enter the mudroom to a sunny den or elongated fireplaced living room. A dining room connects these rooms to the kitchen and spectacular sunroom overlooking the deck and fenced yard. Slide open the deck door to a dining area and a sitting area overlooking the expansive lawn. The kitchen features a Thermador gas range with more countertop space and cabinetry than you could dream of. The first floor bedroom suite offers a gas fireplace and updated bathroom, with a powder room for guests discretely off a main hallway. Upstairs find the remaining bedrooms, a four-piece bathroom and a laundry room. The oversized lot and additional 2300 sq.ft. of unfinished space may provide future expansion potential. If you are look for “more” then this home has it all.
