A rare offering in the heart of the Arnold Arboretum, this historic home—once the residence of famed botanist E.H. Wilson—is available to the public for the first time. Surrounded by acres of serene, forested beauty, the 9-room, 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence sits on a secluded 1/3-acre lot with mature plantings and sweeping views. Rich in period detail and timeless elegance, it features a sophisticated layout that invites its next owner to create a one-of-a-kind masterpiece. A sunlit dining room opens to a spacious deck through French doors, while the fireplaced living room offers a peaceful retreat. Upstairs, the en-suite primary is accessed via a private stairwell and includes an adjacent room ideal as an office or den. Two additional bedrooms enjoy privacy and picturesque vistas of the Arboretum. Just a short walk to Forest Hills Station and all that JP offers, this is a rare opportunity to craft an exceptional home in one of Boston’s most treasured settings.
