This professionally planted oasis offers a level of horticultural beauty and privacy that is truly exceptional for the city.The second level serves as the home's centerpiece, boasting a grand formal living room with soaring ceilings and a handsome study/media room complete with a custom wet bar.The primary suite is a true retreat, with a large walk in closet and a breathtaking, spa-like bathroom anchored by a deep resin soaking tub and a glass enclosed shower room. The top floor contains 3 additional bedrooms and two full marble bathrooms featuring Water Works fixtures. Throughout the residence, five stately fireplaces, bespoke millwork, and rich hardwood floors add layers of warmth and character. Practicality is woven into the design with two laundry areas, all-new systems, and a versatile lower-level au pair suite. This private guest space includes a wine cellar, a new kitchen and its own separate entrance, providing independence and convenience for long-term visitors.A modern fire suppression sprinkler system and a security system is also in place.This is a masterful recreation of Old-World Boston, reimagined for a contemporary lifestyle with the highest caliber of craftsmanship and a storied past.
