About This Home
Tucked on a private road in Brookline’s coveted Cottage Farm neighborhood, this exceptional Colonial-style former carriage house underwent a 2 year renovation to the highest standards, completed in 2025. Soaring ceilings and oversized windows bathe the home in natural light and frame serene views of the surrounding gardens, yard and conservation land. The 1st floor presents a stunning open plan complete with large living and dining rooms, chef’s kitchen, breakfast room and oversized deck - for seamless indoor/outdoor entertaining. The upper level features a tranquil primary suite with 2 dressing rooms and a spa-like bath, an additional bedroom suite and laundry room. The lower level includes 2 bedroom suites (or office, gym), one of which has a private entry. Set on 0.44 acres of exquisitely landscaped grounds with direct access to Amory Park, this home offers a rare combination of luxury, privacy, and convenience—just minutes to Boston, Cambridge, shops, dining and public transit.
