About this home

Nestled in the historic Adams Arboretum and perched above the verdant expanses of the Arnold Arboretum, discover this rare 2 bedroom, 2 bath free-standing cottage. Meander down a brick path and enter the great room where the dramatic stone fireplace, soaring ceiling, and walls of windows blur the line between indoor living and the surrounding lush greenery. An efficient kitchen, bath with steam shower, and in-unit laundry complete the main level. Upstairs offers a unique lofted bedroom, a desk alcove, and a spacious primary suite complete with walk-in closet, tile bath, and sliders to a deck with bucolic vistas. Begin the day with a morning coffee on one of the enchanting private patios or deck, and take a brisk walk along a nearby trail. Set on 8 acres with shared amenities including sprawling wooded & landscaped grounds, a seasonal swimming pool, tennis court, and plentiful parking. A unique blend of privacy, charm and nature - an urban sanctuary like no other!
