Listing broker remarks

Tucked on a side street between Harvard & Porter Squares, 4 Hurlbut St offers a rare blend of 1895 Queen Anne grandeur and comfortable livability. Spanning 3,200 SF, the home retains its striking historic character—boasting soaring ceilings, original inlaid oak floors, leaded glass, and three fireplaces. The updated eat-in kitchen features white shaker cabinets, granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and a unique apothecary-style glass pantry, opening directly to a private patio, gardens, and a detached garage. Six flexible bedrooms span the upper levels, served by updated baths: a second-floor bath with neutral tile and a glass shower, and an exceptionally spacious third-floor bath pairing a modern shower with a classic clawfoot tub. The top level is complete with wide-plank pumpkin pine floors and vaulted ceilings. This welcoming home is just moments from the Red Line, Harvard Square, Porter Sq, and neighborhood favorites like Giulia and Honeycomb Creamery.— Compass
