Boom! This 6-BR, 4.5-BA, 5,060-square-foot spread at 96 Dean Road in Brookline just hit the market for $2,949,000. It's been, we're assured, "meticulously restored and renovated," though its circa 1898 bones survive in the fireplaces and other detailing. Otherwise, it unfolds in an airy, modernist way, with lots of sharp, elegant angles and a rather pastoral would-be Botticelli in the dining room. It's also got a mud room, central air, a home theater, and a two-car garage. And just look at that back yard, eh? Spread out, Brookline, spread out.
