WHAT MAKES THIS A BUNGALUX

A new take on a historical house in one of our fave Boston neighborhoods

• The Balemor Estate was originally constructed for Elizabeth Paine as a gift for her marriage to Thomas Metcalf. We like estates as wedding gifts. There's something very romantic about it (note to future husband, wherever he may be).
• It's hard to update traditional in a modern way. It rarely works. But we're obsessing on this renovation. One of the best we've seen.
• A club room? A spa garden? What more could one ask for?
• Oh, and the Aston in the driveway? Perfect.
