Property Description

Charming five-bedroom, four-bath brick Colonial set on a sidewalk-lined street in Belmont’s desirable Benton Estates neighborhood. Manicured grounds, mature plantings, and an inlaid granite patio create timeless curb appeal and inviting outdoor space. A center-entrance foyer opens to gracious, light-filled living areas, including a formal living room and a renovated eat-in kitchen with a cozy breakfast nook that flows into a spacious dining area with oversized windows. The second floor offers a primary suite with a walk-in closet and private bath, plus two additional bedrooms and a newly renovated shared bath. The finished third floor includes two more bedrooms and a full bath, providing flexible space for guests, work, or hobbies. The walk-out lower level features a family room, home gym area, full bath with laundry, and generous storage. A detached two-car garage completes the property, all within easy reach of Cushing Square, local shops, and the Payson Park Reservoir.
