52 Flint St, Somerville, MA 02145

This rare East Somerville antique single has been thoughtfully modernized and is warm and charming inside. Since 2012, the owner has updated electric and plumbing and installed a new roof, new drywall and trim, some replacement windows, a new half-bathroom, and a new composite deck. These improvements coexist beautifully with the elegant hardwood floors and original character of the home. The large eat-in-kitchen has been improved with engineered stone countertops, subway tile, stainless steel appliances, and mod grey and cream floor tiles, while retaining the character of the 50s wooden cabinets. The sunroom is an enclosed porch and retains an exposed ceiling, paneled walls, and painted floor. Completing the first floor are a living room with built-in bookshelves and a cozy dining room. The second floor contains three bedrooms and an older full bath. The current owner used the front bedroom, with its wall of windows, as an art studio. Full unfinished basement, private back yard.
