Privacy in the city! Classic Tudor with modern upgrades and flexible spaces in a quiet Como neighborhood on a spacious corner lot overlooking the lake. This beautifully maintained home welcomes you with established, low-maintenance perennial gardens accented by fieldstone pathways and plenty of lawn to enjoy yard games. Mature trees provide shade and privacy while allowing panoramic views of the lake from the house and yard. Watch the world go by on Como’s lakeside path from your pergola-sheltered front porch. Enjoy the neighborhood families, walkers and birders who stop for a rest on the corner library bench. For privacy, retreat to the shaded backyard, and enjoy your wood-fired sauna, fire ring, gardens, and multi-level deck with views of the lake. Every detail of this unique home has been thoughtfully designed to make the most of views, space, quiet and privacy. Right out your door, the pedestrian-friendly neighborhood joins miles of walking and biking opportunities through Como Park, around Como Lake, along Wheelock Parkway and the Grand Rounds. You’ll have a front-row seat to springtime crab-apple blossoms lining the lakeshore, gorgeous fall color and the spring and fall songbird migration. Summer means paddle-boarding, canoeing and kayaking, or a round of golf on the Como course around the corner.
