An unexpected oasis! Nearly 3000 sq feet of generous, lovely living space + a private fenced yard, just steps from Yale & Audubon Arts district, with easy on/off for 91/95. Plenty of room - and rooms - enough for flexible home life and work-from-home options. Lovingly renovated top to bottom, this 1890 Colonial Revival now has all the modern bells & whistles. Roof replaced 2009, with new insulation added. Windows (except original stained glass) 100% replaced with high-end Pella "Architect Series" double-hung windows, thermopane and Low-E glass, and extra wall insulation added; this house feels snug in even the worst storm! Energy Star-rated furnace and filtered central air system w/central humidifier. Entire home pre-wired with cable & 1-gigabyte fiber. Kitchen and master bedroom suite gutted and architecturally redesigned, with Bosch appliances, gorgeous built-ins, radiant heat in master bath & added Velux skylights. Marble-front fireplaces, now decorative, add to the grand feel of the home. 3rd floor now a large open loft with ensuite bath and giant walk-in closets for storage, w/separate heat - perfect home office, in-law apartment, or...? Walk-out basement offers more potential living/working space. Private fenced backyard includes former garage, now converted to a roofed cabana, great for outdoor entertaining. Oversize driveway holds up to 3 cars - but in a location this central, you'll hardly need any. Gracious space in a wonderful central location!
