About this home
“A haven in the city,” this turn-of-the-century mansard Victorian home is surrounded by mature trees and extensive green space, ready for minor updates or an extensive renovation by its next owner. Currently encompassing 3 levels consisting of 4-5 beds and 2 baths, soaring 12’ ceilings, original moldings, fireplaces, & railings. Updates include’05 kitchen, gas boilers from ’22 & ’10, 200 amp electrical. Additional walk-out studio / 2nd unit at ground level in back perfect for rental income. Rarely does a home on a lot of this magnitude become available in a prime Jamaica Plain location. Sited on a massive 13,263 SF lot, this property is an absolute dream. A+ locale, just a short walk to Stony Brook T, SW Corridor Park, and the Brewery Complex. This is a legal 2-family home but functions as a single family with small studio (recently rented @ 2,200 month). Now showing by appointment, no open houses.
