In 2001 they renovated and reimagined their two family house and turned it into a single family home which they have cared for with great skill and pride ever since. With 5 bedrooms and 3 floors of living space, 15 Thurston Road offers lots of space with generously sized and welcoming rooms in a fantastic location near Watertown Square and the Charles river. The first floor, with the kitchen at its center, is bright and open. The combination of white finishes and beautiful light with the warm woodwork and floors is incredibly peaceful. The second floor is cozy and quiet with a family room, 2 decks, and 3 large bedrooms, and the top floor has a bedroom unto itself. After their initial renovation in 2001 when they did the kitchen, bathrooms, electrical, heating, etc, they have continued to make small fixes and tweaks every year, including replacing the roof and rebuilding both the front and rear porches. A tidier, more charming house would be hard to find! Come and take a look to see if it is the one for you!
