Property Description
Where Huron Village meets Observatory Hill, this 19th century gem offers remarkable flexibility & room for reinvention. Originally built as side-by-side townhouses, this 3-unit property was expanded at the rear & reconfigured to create a large 4bd/2.5ba main unit w a gracious entry, dramatic 27’ long living room w high ceilings, fireplace & glass doors to the deck & garden, an open kitchen/dining/sunroom w walls of glass overlooking & opening to the deck & garden. The other 2 units are 3rm/1bd/1ba apartments. There is a large unfinished basement, deck, patio & fenced yard, parking for 2 cars & a treetop roof deck. The property would convert beautifully to a single family, back to a 2-unit, or continue as a three. Set along leafy Appleton St, the location offers ready access to many gustatory treasures – Formaggio, Imagine, La Saison, Hi-Rise, La Royal & Talulla, are within 0.3mi – & is a mile or less to Harvard & Porter Sqs, the Charles River & just 0.5mi to Fresh Pond. Such a find!
