Of all the Jamaica Plain neighborhoods, Woodbourne is the one people grow into. This 1922 stucco Colonial on a corner knoll is one of its bespoke originals, shaped over a century by four families. The front door opens into the living room: beamed ceiling, original mantel, working wood fireplace, and French doors bookending the hearth into a heated sunroom wrapped in conifers. To the right, a wainscoted, south-facing dining room with a solid wood deco door at its far end opening to a first-floor office suite — private entrance, full bath, originally the home's physician owner's consulting room. Renovated kitchen: Candlelight cabinetry, quartz, butcher-block peninsula, pro range vented outside. Three bedrooms up; primary with a second wood fireplace and renovated bath. Third floor: two flex rooms, skylight, preserved antique bath. Mostly original windows with storm sashes. Parking for two. A block from the 32 bus to Forest Hills; bordered by Forest Hills Cemetery's Olmsted-era landscape.
