55 Putnam Street

$1,755,000 55 Putnam Street, Somerville, MA 02143
Set on a side street near vibrant Union Square, Gilman Square GLX, and the community bike path, this 1874 mansard gem underwent a remarkable transformation in 2015, winning a Historic Preservation Award in the process. The handsome period architectural detail of the exterior is expertly matched by the thoughtfulness in the 1st floor's owner's unit: tasteful finishes throughout, airy 11' ceilings, windows galore; and the not so sexy, like high-density insulation, Cat6 Ethernet, and double-drywalled ceilings for sound isolation. Upstairs, with 4 beds, 2 baths, and over 2,100 SF of living space on two levels, unit 2 offers an opportunity to be reimagined. The backyard with its mature plantings is an urban oasis, while the Azores grape vine trellis not only shelters your vehicles from the elements, but also makes great jam + wine! Originally a single family, 55 Putnam could easily be converted back to one. Seller welcomes offer with reasonable request to pay for the buyers compensation.
