Set on the upper two floors of an owner-occupied two-family home, this spacious 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence offers historic detail, modern updates, and exceptional natural light. Situated on one of Somerville's most beloved streets: Highland Road.
With nearly 2,500 square feet of living space, the home features a flexible layout including a bedroom or an office, a separate study or den, a formal dining room, a sunny breakfast nook, and generous living areas. Period charm shines through in the original millwork and built-ins, while modern conveniences like updated baths, in-unit laundry, and central heating and cooling offer everyday comfort.
The kitchen is cheerful and spacious, flowing into a bright nook that overlooks the shared yard. The upper level holds three bedrooms and two full baths, including a large primary bedroom with custom built-ins and tree-lined views.
Outdoor space includes a shared patio and yard, perfect for summer evenings and container gardening. A nearby neighborhood playground and easy access to the Somerville Community Path add to the appeal of this vibrant location.
Commuting options are excellent, with the Ball Square Green Line station just a block away and the Red Line at Davis Square close by. Local restaurants, cafes, shops, and neighborhood conveniences are all easily reached.
The owner lives on the first floor and is seeking tenants who will enjoy and care for this unique home as much as they do.
