This 1860 Gothic Revival single family on the National Register of Historic Places features stunning period detail, modern updates, and inviting gathering spaces.

The main floor presents a stunning foyer, the open plan living area featuring a fireplace, and an attached den with vintage pressed ceiling tiles and a glass-paned door opening to the stately front porch. Beyond the living room you'll find the large eat-in kitchen with center island, custom cabinetry, & a window seat, plus the ½ bath, laundry room & screened-in porch. On the upper level you will be delighted by the spacious library with a feature window, two generously sized bedrooms with very unique transom windows at the floor, and the modern full bath.

Neighborhood

Powder House Square neighborhood sits within Somerville a few miles north of Cambridge and Boston. The community derives its name from an 18th century windmill that was later transformed into a gunpowder storage depot that played a major role in the American Revolution. This urban community features apartments in New England style multi-family units. Just a few walkable blocks from the neighborhood's northern border sits Tufts University's primary campus. The neighborhood is also defined by its traffic circle, which contains an island park with benches, pathways, and landscaped shrubbery. While it is largely a residential area, it is home to a number of restaurants and several medical and dental clinics.

Many students and neighborhood residents visit Nathan Tufts Park, where the iconic Powder House is located. Here you can walk your dog or have a picnic under the shade cast by trees hundreds of years old.
