Winchester Home of the Week: 182 Highland Ave.

Completely renovated classic colonial offers a unique piece of Winchester's past.

 

This century-old colonial in the Fells area boasts many details of Winchester's rich history, but extensive renovations both aesthetically and structurally also provide many modern conveniences and styles. The most attractive advantage, however, lies in the fact that all updates brought modern features and conveniences but every detail was carefully planned and executed to preserve the integrity of the home's style and past. Of course, major updates such as a new roof and boiler also make this a sensible buy for any potential homeowner.

Aside from its unique arts and crafts architecture, this home presents many comforting features, such as seven fireplaces that warmly invite guests and residents to enter for those often too infrequent but vital luxurious, calm moments. The fireplaces are strategically situated in both common and private areas, such as the living and family rooms, the master suite, additional bedrooms, the foyer and office.
