SHOWINGS BEGIN WITH OPEN HOUSE Friday, 9/4, FROM 4-5:30P! I've admired the arresting architecture of 17 Belmont Street for years so seeing it in person and presenting it to others is really a treat! My photos don't do it justice...thankfully, professional photos will be up soon! If not actually a Sears kit this bewitching brick Queen Anne/Tudor style home, showing European influences on the exterior, certainly drew its inspiration from the Sears 'Hillsboro' model-its first floor is identical except that the garage was converted to living space 'back in the day''. No 'Sears' confirmation has yet been found. In the same ownership since 1964 its structure and systems are solid. All flooring is HW except for the kitchen and 2 baths. A den (or first floor bedroom) and bath already exists, and the living room w/fireplace is generously sized and inviting! Also on the first floor is a formal front entry with its fabulous arched door and original hardware, formal dining room, and a usable kitchen (DW does not work). Upstairs, 3 bedrooms, a full bath, a walk-in linen closet, a hall closet, and attic (insulated) access are well arranged. The full basement includes laundry storage, and workshop space. The single-car, detached, garage has limited utility but there is plenty of space to rebuild or enlarge it, or to add an ADU. The corner lot is unusually large, with mature landscaping and a hidden 'courtyard' for outside entertaining! Just a few blocks from Bowdoin College, the grocery store, and the shops and restaurants downtown, Douglas Park is a supremely coveted location. Some fortunate person, with the right inspiration and love for this era and this neighborhood, will enjoy outfitting 17 Belmont Street for the next century to his or her own preferences and vision!
