About this home

Elegant and classic with a touch of whimsy, this charming and expansive single-family home is both super-convenient and comfortable. Welcoming: from the wide front porch through the two-story entry hall embraced by striking woodwork and craftsmanship. With over 3,000 square feet, there's plenty of flexible bedroom and office space upstairs, including a primary suite with a walk-in closet, and a sky-lit third-floor with an inspiring sitting room flanked by two large, bright rooms. Front and back stairs in a nod to historic architecture, this quintessential Queen Anne shingle-style home sits atop its quiet block, around the corner from Hobart Park and a walk to Oak Square or the Charles River for boating or biking. This is an ideal alternative to Newton or Cambridge, with a private fenced yard and loads of opportunity to make it your own!
