    What's special

    Location, Location, Location!!! This home is a real true GEM with many highlights (see description attached). Tucked away & secluded in Harvard Sq, this 2596 sq/ft 2 family home has the "look and feel" of a single family, with the benefits of additional space of a 1 bedroom apartment for rental income, an au pair suite or a place for visiting family and friends to stay when they visit. The main part of the house, a two level, 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath unit was renovated in 2009 with creative design ideas, a unique blend of materials and features, open glass doorways with direct access to a private patio and yard. There is an unfinished basement for storage or a workshop and a pave stone driveway to the 2 car garage. The 1 bedroom apartment is located over the 2 bays of the garage. Set back and nestled down the driveway in its own private space, surrounded by many flowering plants, tall arborvitae hedge bushes. A unique setting and in this location, make this a real special place to call home
