Property Description

Set on a leafy side street in the beloved Baldwin neighborhood, this classic 1893 Victorian is expansive, bright, and well-appointed for urban family life. Beautifully renovated in 2014 by Cafasso Design Group, the result is a south-facing, light-filled home with high ceilings and gracious spaces. The first floor has great flow with its connected but distinct rooms for living, dining, and cooking. The restored original staircase leads up to 4 beds, a home office, and an expansive open space that can be used however you imagine it - a sitting area, media room, or even a 2nd office. The finished lower level offers extra elbow room, and the raised ceilings make possible everything from Peloton to pogo sticks! The fenced patio is a hygge retreat for gathering friends, and the surrounding planting beds can satisfy your inner gardener. 65 Wendell is close to HLS, Harvard/Porter Squares (Red Line), and just 2 blocks from lively restaurants, artisan bagels, cafés, and many independent shops.
