Description
A rare opportunity to own a remarkable piece of Belmont's architectural history! Historically known as the W. H. Crenshaw House, this distinguished 1930s Colonial Revival residence was designed by renowned architect Hugh Edward White and is recognized as a contributing historic property within the National Register-listed Belmont Historic District. Offering timeless elegance, exceptional craftsmanship, and character rarely found in today's homes, this extraordinary property has had only two owners in its history, with the current owners having called it home for more than 57 years. Situated on approximately 0.81 acres along highly desirable Circle Drive, this full-brick residence offers an exceptional combination of architectural significance, privacy, and an unbeatable location just moments from the heart of downtown Belmont. Inside, you'll discover beautiful hardwood floors throughout, four fireplaces with gas logs, gracious living spaces, and architectural details that reflect a bygone era. Two staircases, including a traditional service staircase, further highlight the home's historic design. With three full bathrooms and two half bathrooms, the residence offers generous space for both everyday living and entertaining. Adding to the property's exceptional versatility is a 488-square-foot detached second living quarters apartment, complete with its own kitchen, living room, bedroom, and bathroom-ideal for extended family, guests, or a private retreat. A separate 481-square-foot heated sunroom provides another extraordinary space for entertaining, relaxing, or pursuing your favorite hobbies. Additional features include a basement, attached two-car garage, a new roof on the main residence in 2026, and a fully fenced backyard offering privacy and room to enjoy the outdoors. Perhaps one of the property's most remarkable features is its location. Circle Drive offers the best of both worlds: the charm, convenience, and energy of downtown Belmont practically at your doorstep, yet a peaceful, private setting that feels worlds away. Enjoy easy access to Main Street's restaurants, boutiques, coffee shops, parks, and community events, then return home to the tranquility of your own spacious property. Few locations offer this exceptional balance of downtown accessibility, established neighborhood charm, and privacy. Homes of this architectural significance, character, and location are rarely available. 15 Circle Drive isn't simply a place to live-it's an opportunity to own a piece of Belmont's history in one of its most coveted settings, where downtown convenience and private living come together beautifully.
