Listing broker remarks

Rare opportunity to own a Colonial Revival single-family in Dorchester Center, meticulously maintained with its 1897 craftsmanship beautifully preserved throughout. 3 full floors deliver generous living space, 5 well-proportioned bedrooms, and 2.5 baths. The kitchen pairs custom cabinetry with original period details, while oversized living and dining rooms, with a wood-burning fireplace, retain the warmth of the original architecture. The updated full bath features radiant heated floors, a vintage-inspired freestanding clawfoot soaking tub, and separate walk-in marble shower. A private patio and garden create a quiet, zen-like retreat. Set in a neighborhood of colorful, architecturally rich homes, 1 block from the Shawmut Red Line and Loesch Park & Playground, w/ BTone Fitness and the soon-to-open Daily Market grocery nearby. Plus some of Dorchester’s best restaurants, including Via Cannuccia & Tavolo, are nearby, with Adams Village and Lower Mills a quick drive away.— Compass
