About This Home

As of February 2025

Nestled on a coveted street between Harvard and Porter Squares, this beautifully rebuilt 1886 Victorian home with landscaped gardens, seamlessly blends historic grandeur with modern elegance. Featuring soaring 10' ceilings and white oak floors, the impressive formal living and dining rooms with intricate millwork flow effortlessly into a more casual back wing that opens to the backyard. The chef's kitchen, a harmonious blend of soft grey and white oak cabinetry, serves as the heart of the home with its expansive quartzite-topped island and buffet setup. The main living area spans approximately 60'. The second floor offers a generous suite with a dressing room and stunning 4-piece bathroom, along with two bedrooms and a built-in laundry room. The upper level includes two more bedrooms. The lower level is perfect for recreation, with a family, game, or media room complete with a wet bar, an exercise studio, and a guest bedroom and bath. Every detail reflects meticulous craftsmanship!
