This majestic 82 year-old brick colonial on Clairemont Rd. in "Old Belmont Hill," stands proudly symbolizing the quintessential classic Belmont home. Its lines are clear and defined, its materials durable and traditional, and years of conscious homeowners have taken great pride in their caretaking and assuming responsibility of preserving a piece of Belmont's excellent residential legacy.

Inside, the home boasts four levels of living space within almost 4,000 square feet, and with those dimensions, each room and space is granted open, airy settings to divulge a high level of comfort to accommodate larger families, special occasions and even extravagant entertaining. What makes this home even more special, however, is that all this is available and yet, it still conveys a warm and welcoming invitation to residents and guests. One element of its hospitable success is due to the resourceful use of natural materials throughout the home . For example, the gracious custom-designed fireplaced family is drenched in dark wood from the wainscoted walls to the coffered ceiling and charming window seats while clear glass is featured with elegant French doors providing sinuous room dividers and egresses. The 30 foot state-of-the-art kitchen and breakfast room are highlighted with French doors that overlook exquisite gardens and organic ingredients to provide a winning design recipe for a showcase culinary delight. A formal dining room, study and powder room complete the available spaces on this floor while the second level includes a beautiful master suite with a luxurious full, private bath, four additional bedrooms and two family baths.

To expand the available living spaces in this home even further, the third level and basement have also been finished which provides many diverse living accommodations and various recreation and leisure possibilities. Of course, the stunning grounds of matured, lush plantings and gardens also provide opportunities for outdoor activities and the charming covered porch allows residents to relax and take in the picturesque rural setting day or night.

The stylish elegance, quality materials and comfortable designs are all properties that have made Belmont one of the most desirable towns on the real estate. This home offers all these features and many more.
