Review: Wonderful descriptive language

Short story about a young woman's inheritance of her grandmother's Boston estate.  The author's solid grasp of descriptive language makes it fairly easy to envision the house and its surroundings.The story has as its roots a  family secret.  As Mattie works to get the house ready for sale, she uncovers family skeletons and has to deal with the emotional repercussions.  I thought the plot line in that regard was transparent and saw it coming very early in the story.
