Description: Custom designed and built in 1929 for use as a guest house for the Anderson family, and overlooking the park that bears their name, this architecturally distinctive 5,000 square foot, twelve room home has never before been on the market. Updated throughout, it blends vintage detail with contemporary conveniences. Wide pine floors, warm paneled wood walls, twelve-foot high ceilings, eight-foot windows, and elaborate millwork enhance grand room proportions. 24 over 24 double hung windows grace an elegant 25' living room with a woodburning fireplace with carved wood mantel and delft tile surround serving as a focal point. A banquet size dining room is defined by handsome, intricate woodwork throughout. Its large kitchen features a substantial center island and abundant wood cabinetry. There are two sinks, one is triple-divided, and appliances include a refrigerator and gas range, garbage disposal. There is a separate pantry, and the adjacent family room offers glass doors with arched fanlight, providing access to a wood deck and lush, level yard. Custom built-in bookcases grace the handsome first floor library. There is also a lavatory on this floor. The second floor, two room master bedroom suite features a dressing room, and sitting room or nursery, and there are as many as five additional bedrooms. The house has seven hot water heat zones, fueled by oil, and there are three central air-conditioning zones, with individual bedroom temperature control. Laundry facilities are located both on the second floor, and lower level where a washing machine and dryer is provided. There is a two-car direct entry garage, and additional offstreet parking for up to six cars. The wooded 15,241 sq ft lot is fenced, both with wood post and electric pet, and features an in-ground irrigation system. Located directly across from Lars Anderson Park, a 64-acre public recreational facility featuring ball fields, walking trails, an ice skating rink and the Museum of Transportation. The Park, Dexter, Brimmer and May, Beaver Country Day and British Schools are nearby, as is The Brookline Country Club, and Longwood Cricket Club.
