About This Home
ACCEPTED OFFER. Set on a sleepy side street in the beloved Baldwin neighborhood, this reimagined turn-of-the-century Victorian is expansive, bright, and well-appointed for urban family life. Beautifully renovated in 2025, the result is a south-facing, light-filled home with tasteful finishes, and a thoughtful floor plan. The first floor open plan has ample space for living, dining and cooking with floor-to-ceiling windows, as well as mudroom storage and powder room. The second floor primary suite is airy and hosts a full bath and walk-in closet. A second en-suite bedroom and laundry complete this level. Perched on the third floor are two additional bedrooms, bathroom and a sitting area w/ wet bar. Downstairs is a fifth bedroom, bathroom, den and storage! The beautifully landscaped garden and rear patio is a quiet retreat for gathering friends. Mellen Street is close to Harvard Square (Red Line), and one block from lively restaurants, artisan bagels, cafes, and many independent shops.
