For Sale - Active
Units n/a

A rare opportunity awaits in coveted West Medford. This Queen Anne home offers an expansive living area with 12 rooms & 5+ bedrooms, all above grade. Lovingly maintained by the same family for nearly 50 years, the owners have preserved most of its original details including yellow and pumpkin pine wide plank floors, stained glass, moldings and windows. The timeless elegance of the original design shines through yet also offers modern conveniences such as a newer gas boiler w/ zoned heating + owned solar panels. The flexible layout suited the homeowners well over the years, with traces of a nursery, an au pair/teenage retreat, an in-law suite to accommodate an elderly parent, & an art studio. The fenced yard features a large deck & mature plantings, while balconies on the 2nd & 3rd floors provide lovely outdoor space at each level. Nestled in a sought-after, tree lined neighborhood less than 1/4 mile to the MBTA Commuter Rail as well as the shops and restaurants in West Medford Sq.
