This stately Victorian makes an immediate impressionbold in color, rich in character, and full of historic detail thats increasingly hard to find. Crown molding, French doors, a secondary butlers staircase, and incredible original built-ins speak to its 19th-century craftsmanship, carried throughout an expansive three-level layout with five bedrooms. A dining room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and bay window with built-in seating defines the main living spaces, while the spacious kitchen, centered around an island, opens directly to the backyard and garage. Upstairs, the home continues to unfold with period fireplaces, a private covered deck off the primary, and upper-level rooms lined with built-ins that offer flexibility for bedrooms, work, or creative use. Set near Watertown center and Harvard Square, with easy access to I-90 and public transportation, this historic single-family home is move-in ready, steeped in history, and ready for its next chapter.
