About this home

Wonderful Victorian townhome/condo in 2-unit building in Harvard Square! High ceilings, great light, 4 bedrooms plus office/nursery, 2.5 baths, eat-in-kitchen, dining room, good sized living room with wood burning fireplace, original wood floors and views of the Charles River. Located in the Half Crown Marsh District, this home feels like a single family. You're right in town with amazing access to Memorial Drive for weekend jaunts, as well as public transportation, the Red Line T, and you're a block within Longfellow and Riverbend parks. There is a full unfinished basement (6'11" ceiling height) with washer, dryer, workbench and lots of storage space. The interior of the house has been freshly painted. There are bay windows and lots of original details throughout the house. There is a private outdoor patio and tandem parking for two cars. Very special home!
