The 13-room, 7,616-square-foot 27 Colchester Street in Brookline, near the border with Boston, is technically a condo per its deed. But it’s obviously much, much more.

The de facto house dating from 1898 includes seven fireplaces, five bedrooms, five and a half bathrooms, an eat-in kitchen, and a foyer apparently big enough for a pool table. There’s also a wine-tasting room and a theater.

The three-story property is on sale now through Coldwell Banker for $4.2 million, or $551 a square foot—which might be considered song over the line in Boston.
