About this home
Fabulous single family with 3 room in-law apartment. Owner-occupied for over 30 years, you will be captivated by the oak floors, high ceilings and whimsical charm. You will find stained glass, reading nooks, and custom touches throughout. The 'Owner's Unit' consists of a home office/studio, 3-4 bedrooms, including an oversized primary bedroom with cathedral ceilings and 3 closets, 3 full baths, and an open dining/living room with a fireplace. The 'In-law' is a 3-room rental apartment that could be used as a separate home office, au-pair or could be combined with the main house. The sweet backyard is nicely landscaped with trees, a wisteria-covered arbor, and a wonderful large deck. Additionally, there is full sun on the front 2nd floor south-facing deck. The location is perfect - just minutes to Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, the Central Sq red line, the BU bridge and the green line, and the Charles River. Offers, if any, are due on Wednesday, Sept 28th at 1pm.
