About this home
Detached. Set on a quiet, tree-lined street in the Baldwin neighborhood, this reimagined Victorian blends classic architecture with thoughtful updates that support daily life. Renovated in 2025, the home is south-facing and filled with light, with an open main level for living, dining, and cooking, plus a powder room and generous mudroom area. Upstairs, the primary suite is a calm retreat with a well-detailed bath and excellent storage, and there?s a second en-suite bedroom and laundry on this floor as well. The top level offers two more bedrooms and a full bath, and the lower level has a fifth bedroom, den, and plenty of storage. The landscaped garden and patio out back are peaceful and private. Mellen Street feels tucked away, with old-growth trees and a quiet, residential vibe?yet it?s just blocks from Harvard Square and Red Line T, and around the corner from a standout stretch of independent shops, restaurants, and caf?s, including Giulia, Mo?ca, Pavement, Simon?s, and Bagelsaurus.
