Charm abounds in the details like a two-door butler's pantry, built-in buffet with hand carved reliefs and a modern cooks kitchen with original glass -door cabinetry. Six bedrooms, Master Bedroom suite, 700 sq. ft. ‘ballroom' and a library offer plenty of space to retreat. Tranquil outdoor space includes deck overlooking a leafy green yard. Located on a quiet, tree-lined street it's a short walk to the Red Line Ashmont T, new restaurants/ bars, seasonal Farmers Market and more.
