86 Glen St, Somerville, MA 02145

Reimagined and expanded by its current owners, 86 Glen Street is the epitome of a modern home that still honors its historic character. All work here was done with both an artistic eye and with artisanal skill. From the custom kitchen cabinetry, to the efficient and modern Danish wood stove, the plentiful built-ins and the elegant fixtures, this house has been designed and built with a rare amount of skill and care. A veritable greenhouse, the addition floods the 1st floor with light. It offers a stellar kitchen, breakfast area and den–and it creates a seamless transition to the stunning backyard. There you’ll find a large bluestone patio, one with room for all your guests and surrounded by mature trees and deftly chosen plantings. Atypical in all the best ways, this is a magical home in the city.
