This authentic 1950s mid-century gem has remained remarkably intact through the decades and is a time capsule of colorful period tile baths, a General Electric steel kitchen, large-format parquet floors, built-ins, and original fireplaces. The main level offers 2 beds/1 bath in approx. 1,425 sq. ft., with a sunroom overlooking a generous yard. The lower level provides an additional 1,278 sq. ft. of vintage charm, including a recreation room with period details, a brick fireplace, built-ins, and glass block accents. Situated on a generous 7,501 sq. ft. lot in one of Brookline's most distinctive residential neighborhoods, the property offers endless possibilities for restoration, expansion, or thoughtful modernization.— Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Commonwealth Real Estate
