Belmont Home of the Week: 29 Preble Gardens Rd.

This classic Belmont colonial is a perfect illustration of why so many prospective homebuyers prefer this premier real estate market.

Prospective homebuyers will immediately recognize the impact of the many recent valuable updates this classic brick colonial in Benton Estates has received, and impressed they should be. To name just a few, a new heating system and electrical service, two renovated baths, new third floor replacement windows, a new roof and front door and professionally landscaped front yard. Now for the equally exciting news. This property offers a spacious sun-filled floor plan that will comfortably accommodate a family with its gracious rooms that have been enhanced with warm, welcoming hues and tasteful details.

The traditional front entry is flanked by a 24 x 11 square foot fireplaced living room and a charming 13 x 11 square foot formal dining area. The spacious 15 x 11 square foot kitchen offers a winning recipe of a fresh, modern culinary center with sparkling white as its main, neutral ingredient, an abundance of counter space, bonus pantry and sleek windows drenching the space with natural sunlight. An 18 x 11 square foot bedroom provides the convenient option for single-floor living or could be used as a family room to accompany the intimate 16 x 7 square foot den.

The 11 x 19 square foot master suite with a full bath, adjoining office and private balcony is located on the second floor as well as two additional bedrooms at 11 x 11 square feet and another full bath. A fifth 10 x 12 square foot bedroom and a full bath on the third story offer a great au-pair or teenager suite option.
