Unbeatable location! Set on a quiet, leafy Belmont street, this beautiful family home is just around the corner from Winn Brook School and a short distance from the new Belmont Middle and High School campus. Belmont Center, commuter rail, Alewife Station, parks, and shops are all close by - an unusually convenient setting for everyday life. Upgraded and substantially expanded, this light-filled Colonial has central AC and hardwood floors throughout. The first floor features a private two-room primary suite with a luxurious bathroom, as well as a separate office. At the heart of the home is a soaring cathedral-ceiling family room with expansive windows. Upstairs are four additional spacious corner bedrooms with built-in bookshelves. The beautifully finished lower level feels like a world of its own - filled with natural light and designed for recreation and relaxation, with a family room, playroom, sauna, Jacuzzi, laundry, and abundant storage. Outside, a grassy backyard and a delightful gazebo create an irresistible setting for summer BBQs and peaceful evenings under the stars. It is truly a happy place to live.
