Set on over 1.2 acres with a 1.62-acre experience via a neighboring easement, this exceptional Chestnut Hill estate offers a tranquil oasis on one of the area's most coveted and secluded streets. Originally built in 1900 and thoughtfully renovated over time, the residence spans more than 9,300 square feet with six bedrooms, six full bathrooms, and three half bathrooms. Its richly detailed living spaces were designed for both elegant entertaining and everyday comfort. Gracious formal rooms, soaring ceilings, and exquisite millwork overlook beautifully landscaped grounds featuring a heated, in-ground pool, a basketball court, and ample parking. Once home to Alvan T. Fuller, the 50th Governor of Massachusetts, the property carries remarkable historic provenance. The grounds were originally designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, further contributing to the property's timeless character. This is a rare opportunity to own a historic estate of this scale in an unbeatable location.
