About this home

Set on a quiet tree-lined street in Somerville’s sought-after Spring Hill neighborhood, this grand Victorian blends timeless character with exceptional scale, charm, and flexibility. Situated on a nearly 6,500 sq ft lot, the home features soaring ceilings, oversized windows, beautiful original detail, and multiple levels of living. A welcoming covered front porch overlooks one of the neighborhood’s most picturesque streets, while the thoughtfully designed kitchen with Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances opens seamlessly to the dining area and large rear deck overlooking the deep private backyard framed by mature trees, including a striking holly tree that stays green year-round. The 2nd floor offers 3 bedrooms plus an office and full bath. The oversized top-floor primary suite includes space ready for a future spa-like bath. Walk-out lower level functions well as an in-law suite or potential ADU with space for an accessory kitchen. Moments to Union Sq, Porter Sq, Harvard, & the Green Line.
