Property Description
Welcome home to 2501 Dorchester, where thoughtful updates, comfortable living spaces, and plenty of room to entertain come together. The main floor offers a spacious living room, updated kitchen with breakfast nook, a butler’s pantry, formal dining room with a wet bar remodeled in 2025, and a dedicated office. Plantation shutters throughout the main floor and primary suite add a classic touch, while the primary suite offers the luxury of dual walk-in closets and a beautifully updated bath with dual vanities, soaking tub, and separate shower. And speaking of convenience... the laundry is upstairs, right where you need it. The additional bedrooms share a dual-entry full bath, making the space work well for family and guests. The finished lower level gives you plenty of room to spread out, with a large recreation area, billiards space, custom built-ins, storage, and a separate bonus room with its own full bath. Use it for overnight guests, a second home office, hobbies, movie nights, or whatever your household needs. Outside, the backyard is made for enjoying the warmer months, with mature landscaping, privacy hedges, fencing, multiple paver patios, seating areas, and café lights. A remote-controlled privacy gate adds everyday convenience and an extra layer of privacy, while new pavers to the front walkway and backyard in 2025 give the exterior a fresh update. And because the big-ticket items matter, the roof was replaced in 2024, the hot water tank was replaced in 2021, and the furnace received a complete rebuild in 2019. Add in the thoughtful updates throughout, a Forest Hills Swim Club membership and the flexibility of the finished lower level, and 2501 Dorchester is a home that gives you plenty of space to live, work, entertain, and enjoy.
