A château-style mansion inspired by French opulence is now available in Brookline, Massachusetts. Originally reported by Boston.com and evidenced by the property's listing website, this historical manor combines old-world grandeur with up-to-the-minute luxury for $6,800,000.
Interior features of the nearly 9000 square-foot mansion include marble and oak floors, black granite fixtures in the kitchens and bathrooms, and elegant fireplaces. Enhanced with energy efficient wall-mounted hot-water heaters, HVAC systems, and an 80-gallon buffer tank, this estate boasts a perfect balance of grandeur and functionality.
The main residence, constructed in 1993, attaches to a historic carriage house from the Paine Estate. The estate dates back to 1893, when Walter Channing Cabot built the original house for his daughter, Ruth Cabot, and her husband, Robert T. Paine. Today, the estate resides on just less than an acre after subdivisions and renovations.
The historic carriage house was renovated to offer a four-room, two-bath guest house, complete with a kitchen. Adding to the elegance of the château are a new two-car garage, a basement, and an attic, raising the total living space to an impressive 14,507 square feet. Additional features include six full bathrooms and two half baths.
Strategically located, the château is merely five miles from Downtown Boston. The neighborhood is well-regarded for its historic estates, making it a very prestigious residential area. The estate is also close to several recreational sites like The Country Club, The Street at Chestnut Hill, Brookline Reservoir Park, Larz Anderson Park, and Jamaica Pond.
