This gracious five bedroom home on sought-after Hillside Terrace is set on a lush 8,400 square foot fenced-in lot. A classic center entrance Colonial that features generously proportioned, light-filled rooms. The foyer sets a welcoming tone and the front-to-back living room with a fireplace, the sunroom, and the formal dining room all have custom shutters and hardwood floors. The crisp white kitchen opens to a family room that affords views of the patio and perennial garden. The master bedroom has a bathroom en suite and two ample closets. Two additional corner bedrooms and full bathroom grace the second floor. The third floor with two bedrooms, a bathroom, built-in bookshelves and skylights offers space for guests, an office or an au pair suite. The walk-out unfinished basement presents an opportunity for a mudroom and extra storage. A quick jaunt to Belmont schools, Fresh Pond shopping and public transportation, and just 3 miles to Harvard Square. A wonderful home and location.
