For $4 million, a historic Jamaica Plain home with an indoor waterfall
"The house at 45 Parley Avenue in Jamaica Plain has a "country feel" within the Boston city limits. The six-bedroom, four-and-a-half bathroom home, which was built in 1899, is tucked on a quiet gravel road in a leafy neighborhood separated from the hustle and bustle of Centre Street. Currently listed at $3.95 million, the 6,440-square-foot, light-filled home is a unique treasure."
"Set on a .19-acre lot, the home eschews a traditional front yard for lush plantings. A series of steps leads up to the front of the home, which welcomes you through double doors on the main floor. Extensively renovated in the early aughts, the space features hardwood floors and decorative molding throughout. The mahogany stairwell holds center court, while a built-in saltwater fish tank sits in the wall."
"A spacious living room with two fireplaces and a window seat flows naturally into the dining room, which faces southwest. It has views of the backyard and a wall of windows that embraces the setting. Upstairs, you'll find the primary bedroom suite, which has hardwood floors and features a historic marble fireplace. A wall of windows and French doors open out to the covered terrace. There is also an attached primary bathroom and a walk-in closet."
