Sited on Avon Hill just a few blocks between Raymond Park and Porter Square, this lovely Victorian has been tastefully maintained while preserving period architectural details such as high ceilings and gracious proportions throughout. Past the 23' front porch, you are greeted by a spacious foyer and grand staircase. Behind French doors, the living room flows into the formal dining room with pocket doors, a bay window, and large fireplace. The country-style kitchen has stainless steel appliances and hosts the laundry area, as well as as access to the deck and fenced yard. Upstairs, there are 3 generous bedrooms, an office with a bay window, and a hall bathroom. The top floor houses 2 more spacious bedrooms and a hall bathroom. The untapped lower level offers high ceilings, an additional laundry area, and bulkhead exterior access. Outside, there is driveway parking and mature plantings. Located within a 1 mile radius of the T and Commuter Rail, and very close to Harvard and Lesley.
