    What's special

    Featured on PBS's This Old House, this exceptional residence offers a singularly gracious renovation of a grand late- Victorian on one of the most beautiful and sought-after residential side streets of Watertown. Sited on a landscaped and level lot of nearly 16,000 square feet, it has all that the most discerning buyers seek: large and beautiful sun-filled rooms, abundant open and inviting spaces for entertaining, a carefully conceived chef's kitchen that offers two informal dining areas and opens onto the deck and expansive garden, a good number of bedrooms and studies, and beautiful baths. The first floor alone has nearly 2,000 square feet of superb living space renovated to an artisanal level. There are exquisitely finished doors, high ceilings, stained glass, excellent sun exposures, top-grade artisanal cabinetry and built-in storage, uniformly high-quality moldings and fine period details, including the beautiful front hall stair. Superb systems for efficient year-round comfort.

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
