55 Leicester offers a rare opportunity in one of Brookline’s premier, private locations. Behind its grand façade and dramatic floating staircase, this expansive estate awaits its next chapter. While the home showcases soaring ceilings, walls of windows overlooking landscaped grounds, and an open, light-filled floor plan, it is ready for a visionary buyer to reimagine and restore its full potential. With 7 bedrooms, multiple lofts, en-suite baths, and smart home systems, the scale and layout already exist for a truly extraordinary residence. Signature features such as the heated driveway, limestone floors, an elevator to all levels, 5-car garage with turntable, inground pool and pool house, roof deck, and wine cellar add to the appeal. For developers, investors, or end-users willing to undertake a project, 55 Leicester is an unmatched canvas to create a world-class home in an A+ Brookline location.
