About This Home
Welcome to Brightside, a meticulously restored c. 1900 summer cottage on Boston's "gold coast." Designed by architect John A. Hasty for James T. Phelps, this 7,697 sq ft shingle-style retreat boasts 5 beds, 5 baths, and 5 fireplaces. Nestled on a generous, private lot with manicured grounds and evergreens, Brightside is just one block from sandy Phillips Beach. Enjoy coastal living on the oversized wraparound screened porch. Inside, architectural details abound: custom millwork, high ceilings, rich hardwoods, and 83 restored bi-glass windows fill the rooms with light. A seamless blend of historic charm and modern updates, including a 2002 detached 3-car garage.This is a rare chance to own a piece of New England history where craftsmanship and location unite, just steps from the beach.
