Beautifully situated at the summit of Aspinwall Hill, this gracious, expansive Victorian home offers unique opportunities for the discerning buyer. Originally a single family, it was reconfigured to two units, with private entrances on opposite sides. The spacious yard is a gardener's delight. The front unit features high ceilings, hardwood floors, moldings, original woodwork, and lovely fireplaces. A foyer opens to the living room with a curved bay window, which leads to the formal dining room, also highlighted by bay windows, and finally to an updated kitchen with a large peninsula, ample wood cabinetry, great pantry space and a laundry area. Two bedrooms plus an updated full bathroom complete this level. Upstairs is a large primary bedroom, graced by a curved bay window, with a bright adjoining sitting room offering excellent closet space. Also on this level are another bedroom and an updated full bathroom, with a pristine soaking tub. The second unit offers an eat-in kitchen with 2 adjoining pantries, living room, and unique reading nook, plus 1/2 bath on one level, and 3 bedrooms plus a full bathroom on the upper level. Generous storage space throughout both units. Recently renovated Schick Park is very close by, as well as walking paths. Close proximity to Runkle School and Brookline High. Also nearby are shops, restaurants, public transportation, Star Market and Whole Foods.
