OPEN HOUSE CANELLED. Offer accepted. It's rare to find a single family home steps from Porter Sq with untapped potential such as this! It has nearly 2000 SQFT with driveway and yard, eleven rooms, and three floors - including an unfinished attic. Already quaint and delightful; however, the options for customization through renovations encourage your vision and allow your dream home to come to life. Enjoy period details and great craftsmanship, nice woodwork, tall ceilings, and abundant light. Roof recently redone. Given the lot size there are likely options to convert into a two or three family and multiply the value of the home. The possibilities are endless and await your touch. Take advantage of this chance to claim an ever-desirable location and make it yours. Moments from the train, shopping, restaurants, and nightlife and easily connected to everything Somerville & Cambridge, the timeless appeal of living here will ensure you are safe in your investment and won't disappoint.
