About this home

The early morning light is breathtaking at 638 South: a 2016 renovation opened a bright, contemporary kitchen up fully to the dining room, while preserving original details. An expanse of windows overlooking the yard faces SE and receives stunning light all year long, while afternoons bring a rosy glow to the front rooms of the home. A living room, half bath, and spacious foyer finish out the circular flow on the 1st floor. On the 2nd floor, four bedrooms and a full bath. A 2018 renovation added a full suite on the 3rd floor: skylights, ample storage, a full bed and bath, and a sunlit office or home gym. Three porches and a fully-fenced yard, plus thoughtful perennial plantings throughout (see photos from last summer!) complete a private outdoor escape in the heart of close-knit South Street. Just minutes from the Arboretum, Roslindale Square, and Forest Hills, with off-street parking, and easy access to multiple transit options plus restaurants, markets, bakeries, and breweries.
