About This Home
As of June 2025Among the friendly appeal of Searle Avenue and convenience of Cypress Street is this charming Arts and Crafts era two-family home. Each unit offers hardwood floors, living room with fireplace, dining room with beamed ceilings, and updated kitchen and baths. Unit #1: has two comfortable bedrooms that face rearward toward Searle. Unit #2: has three bedrooms and a private screened porch. The lower level has an additional kitchenette, bathroom, family room and game room. Common laundry is in the basement as are utilities and extra storage. The site has been thoughtfully planted, offering flowering trees for Spring and lush shade for Summer. There are two parking spaces, one on site, which doubles as a stone patio and garden, and a 2nd space on Searle by agreement among the neighbor association. A stone’s throw away from Brookline High School, Pierce School, Brookline Village, parks, MBTA Green (D) line. Fantastic location: walk to all that Brookline has to offer. A truly rare find!
