A rare 1913 Seaport Colonial, characterized by its all-American aesthetic and timeless elegance, 1532 Castillo St is a classic manor of perfect proportions. Adorned with black shutters and diamond-paned windows, the stately exterior seems to capture the beauty of simpler times. The impressively deep lot —uniquely zoned R4 — includes a 5 BD, 3 BA main house plus detached duplex of 1BR units w rental income. Quarter sawn wood floors, board & batten wainscoting, 10’ coffered ceilings, five-panel wood doors and built-in cabinetry/buffet are among the original details that add a historic touch to the home. A staircase w bay window links the two stories of living space & a finished attic spans the length of the house. An outstanding investment and/or residence awaits! The circular floor plan ensures comfort and ease; a spacious living room with rock fireplace and wood plank mantle lead to the formal dining room on one side and an entry-level bedroom (or office) on the other. The delightful kitchen features white marble counters, white subway tile backsplash, and a Bertazzoni gas range beneath lofty ceilings with skylights. Beyond French doors a south-facing flagstone patio, flanked with mature hedges, is ideal for relaxing under the sun. Upstairs, the master suite has his-and-her walk-in closets in addition to an exquisite, all-white bathroom with Carrera marble counters, basketweave tile flooring and an oversized glass shower. Of the three other bedrooms, the northernmost is particularly special thanks to its panoramic views of the mountains and rooftops of downtown. Located in the highly sought-after Peabody School district.
