About This Home
As of November 2015A lush wooded setting only minutes from Cambridge and Boston. This dramatic home nestles in MA Audubon acreage amidst woods, ponds, and walking trails, yet it’s only a 10-minute walk to Belmont Center with its restaurants, shops and access to public transportation. The home was custom-designed and built for this spectacular site in 2010. The interior is spacious and flooded with light. Dynamic, inviting spaces and oversized windows punctuate the living areas. The stunning entrance rotunda centers on a circular staircase rising to a peaked skylight. The ultra-modern kitchen is aesthetically vibrant and uniquely practical. The upstairs bedrooms look out through clerestory windows onto majestic trees and a wildlife refuge. The layout includes a flexible 1st floor study or fifth bedroom/guest suite with full bath. The house is LEED-certified for energy efficiency. An art and book collector's delight, this home must be seen to be believed.
