A South Shore Classic – Where Timeless Craftsmanship Meets Modern Comfort Do not let your eyes deceive you-this is not a gut rehab.

While the home embraces its old-school craftsmanship, it also features a host of thoughtful updates that blend modern convenience with historic charm. Inside, you’ll find 2.5 beautifully remodeled bathrooms, a new stunning Euro-style fully equipped gourmet chef’s kitchen outfitted with all the bells and whistles equipped for all those high-end five-star Michelin chefs in your home, and a modern elegance lighting package that enhances the home’s character. The property is equipped with forced air heating, two furnaces, and central air, ensuring year-round comfort. This home is bathed in natural light, thanks to an abundance of oversized windows that highlight the refined architectural details. One of this home’s most unique features is its four sunrooms-two on the main level and TWO second FLOOR BEDROOMS HAVE THERE OWN PRIVATE sunroom studies off the massive second-floor.
