Home of the week: Brookline

Located at the quietest end of a dead-end street in Brookline, this 1950s ranch defies expectations, offering airy spaces with curved entryways between large rooms.

This property has three bedrooms, three full bathrooms, a built-in china cabinet, and is listed at $729,000.

The kitchen, with the original cabinets and a dated air, is a long rectangle with windows above the sink, eating area, pantry, and a mudroom. Counter space is considerable.

Radiating off the wide foyer is the spacious living room, which has a fireplace with a soaring mantel made of rough-hewn stone and picture window.

A closer look at the fireplace and mantel at 106 Woodcliff Road.

The master bedroom has double closets with mirrored doors, and its own private bath with a shower.

The other bedrooms each have good closet space and natural light from two large windows.
