About This Home
**PRICE IMPROVEMENT**Nestled on a quiet private street in sought after Brookline Village, this updated 3-bedroom, 3 full bath mid-century single family home blends classic character with modern comfort. Just steps from the T, shops, restaurants, and parks, it offers an unbeatable location with everyday convenience. The bright inviting layout features a large living room with a newer roof. Standout 2004 addition, the bright three season sunroom, serves as a wonderful retreat for relaxing or entertaining while enjoying views of the expansive private yard. The home boasts three generously sized bedrooms and three full baths, including a large primary suite with a newer roof. The significant 2005 addition created a partially finished basement that provides excellent flexible space — perfect for a family room, home office, gym, or guest area — while retaining ample storage. Recent upgrades enhance everyday living: a 2023 new mini split system for heat and AC plus a 2025 solar panel installation.
