Description

This romantic tree-top unit looks over the lovely gardens of Humboldt St., steps from Mass. Ave! This third-floor walk-up, in an historic Queen Anne Victorian, has been exquisitely rehabbed and offers sunlight, high ceilings (8+ feet), & gleaming hardwoods--steps from Harvard and Porter Squares. Walk up through a private door to a foyer with hand-stenciled walls and painted wood floors--large enough to accommodate a small desk. Turn right to the large LR with built-ins for books as well as closets & storage. The antique mirror and pendant light are yours to enjoy. Step next into a sun-splashed bedroom, with a bay window and closet. The large bath features an old-fashioned claw-foot tub & European-style shower, with skylight. The heart of the home is the kitchen "everything" room--large enough for a DR table, breakfast nook, & couch. Butcher block table, exposed brick, and open shelving add charm to tree-top view w/ pot garden. ALL UTILITIES (EXCEPT WIFI & CELL) PAID BY LANDLORD.
