Truly extraordinary. "The Flamingo House" was built to be deluxe in Spanish Mediterranean style in 1937-38. In the hope of foiling termites, the walls are thick concrete, the floors are concrete, the stairs are concrete, the roof is concrete tile. It feels rock solid. Acoustics give a level of privacy that few other homes can match. Utility bills are tiny: the average gas and electric bills combined have been a mere $293/month. Fabulously large spaces up and down, 2 living rooms, formal dining, a marble-floor screened porch, and shady brick patios. Rare for Westboro, there are 2 first-floor bedrooms. Each and every one of its 5 bedrooms has its own bath. Arched doors, oak parquet floors, crown moldings, beautiful tile, lovely landscaping. New kitchen 2021, new boiler 2022. Basement play space (high ceiling, not counted in finished square footage) includes a sauna. Rich in history, lovingly maintained without exception since it was built, it's a rare treasure.
