275 Washington St, Belmont, MA 02478

Antique and Modern. Built in 1868, this estate has an extensive written history in the Belmont Library (Shaw Estate). The house was selected for the League of Women Voters' house tour in 1993. Most unusual for Belmont is the oversized private lot that includes a large back yard with privacy hedges. While the skylights and many windows provide ample sunshine, the tree-shaded yard allows for cool breezes throughout the summer months. The front yard offers plantings and an oversized bluestone driveway. The first floor is a modified open floor plan with a large kitchen that seats six comfortably at the built-in table. A sunroom is located off the kitchen with a doorway to the living room. The flow of the home is perfect for entertaining. Updates in 2013 and 2014 include a master bedroom with ensuite bath, and new roof.
