This 5-bedroom, 3-bath home is ready for it's next owners updates. A rare Davis Square offering, combining period detail, flexible use, an oversized lot, and six off-street parking spaces. From the moment you enter, the home’s architectural character stands out, with beautiful natural woodwork, inlaid-detail fireplaces, substantial moldings, and generously proportioned rooms that showcase the craftsmanship and elegance of an earlier era. The flexible multi-family layout creates opportunities for owner-occupants, investors, multi-generational living, or thoughtful renovation and conversion. Zoned as a two-family and currently used as a single family with rental unit. Outside, the oversized lot provides significantly more usable space than is typical for the area plus a large, private driveway. Both exceptional amenities in Davis Square. Ideally located just moments from the heart of Davis Square, enjoy easy access to an outstanding collection of restaurants, cafés, shops, entertainment, and neighborhood amenities. The Davis Square MBTA Red Line station is at the end of the street, providing convenient access to Harvard Square, Kendall Square, Downtown Boston, and beyond. Tufts University, Porter Square, Cambridge, neighborhood parks, and the Somerville Community Path are also within easy reach. With its rich period character, oversized kitchen, substantial lot, six-car parking, flexible multi-family layout, and exceptional Davis Square location, this is a truly rare opportunity with both immediate appeal and outstanding future potential.
