In 2001 they renovated & reimagined their 2 family house and turned it into a single-family home which they have cared for with great skill & pride ever since. With 5 bedrooms & 3 floors of living space, 15 Thurston Rd offers lots of space with generously sized & welcoming rooms in a fantastic location near Watertown Sq. and the Charles River. The 1st floor, with the kitchen at its center, is bright & open. The combination of white finishes & beautiful light with the warm woodwork & floors is incredibly peaceful. The 2nd floor is cozy & quiet with a family room, 2 decks, and 3 large bedrooms, and the top floor has a bedroom unto itself. After their initial renovation in 2001 when they did the kitchen, bathrooms, electrical, heating, etc., they have continued to make small fixes & tweaks every year, including replacing the roof & rebuilding both the front and rear porches. A tidier, more charming house would be hard to find! Come and take a look to see if it is the one for you!
