About This Home
As of August 2020Location, Location, Location!!! This home is a real true GEM with many highlights (see description attached). Tucked away & secluded in Harvard Sq, this 2596 sq/ft Two family home has the "look and feel" of a single family, but with all benefits of additional space for a separate 1 bedroom apartment for rental income, an au pair suite or a place for visiting family and friends to stay. The main part of the house, a two level, 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath unit was renovated in 2009 with creative design ideas, a unique blend of materials and features open glass doorways with direct access to a private patio and yard. There is an unfinished basement for storage or a workshop and a paver block driveway to the 2 car garage. The 1 bedroom apartment is located over the 2 bays of the garage. Set back and nestled down the driveway in its own private space, surrounded by many flowering plants, tall arborvitae hedges bushes, this setting and location make this a real special place to call home.
