    What's special

    On the National Historic Register, this stunning, center-gable Italianate (c. 1858) was overlaid in Eastlake style trim (c. 1888) and was the site of the world's first permanent residential phone line. There is extraordinary original interior and exterior detail, including parquet and inlaid wood floors; hand-carved woodwork; Italian tile fireplace hearth; antique light fixtures; ornate hardware; high ceilings; butler's pantry; carved plaster moldings. Still used as a single family home, it has 10 bedrooms and 4 baths on a large corner lot. This is a rare opportunity to restore an outstanding historic home in hot East Somerville, currently near 2 Orange Line stops and 2 future Green Line stations, and within walking distance of great restaurants and shops on East Broadway as well as Assembly Row, the Mystic River waterfront, and Charlestown. Easy access by foot, bike, public transportation to Kendall Sq., Boston, MIT, Harvard, and Tufts. Near Rts. 93, 28, 38, 90, and Logan Airport.
