About this home

A magnificent city home perched perfectly on Spring Hill, full of historic charm and modern touches. The entrance shares the original grand foyer of the house which leads graciously into the high-ceiling living room. Oversized windows line the walls and the living room is anchored beautifully by a (currently decorative) fireplace. The renovated eat-in kitchen has ample prep space and opens directly to a private garden area. Double doors lead from the living room to the large bedroom–easily accommodating both a sleeping area and an office space. Private laundry and storage are located in the bright and clean basement. Less than a block from the #85 bus to Kendall Square. One garage parking space with an additional driveway space in front.
