About This Home
This Queen Anne beauty offers 12 rooms and 5+ bedrooms, all above grade, with timeless character and modern comforts. Lovingly cared for by the same family for nearly 50 years, the home retains much of its original detail - wide plank yellow pine as well as pumpkin pine floors, stained glass, moldings, and windows - while featuring updates such as a refreshed kitchen, newer gas boiler with zoned heating and energy-efficient solar panels. The flexible layout includes a first-floor primary suite, 3-4 bedrooms on the second level, and an upper floor ideal for an au pair, teen, or in-law space. Outdoor options are plentiful: a fenced yard with large deck and mature plantings, plus balconies on the second and third floors. Set on a tree-lined street less than 1⁄4 mile to the MBTA Commuter Rail and just 1 mile to Tufts University, this rare West Medford opportunity combines history, convenience, and charm.
