What's Special

Single Family ResidenceBuilt in 19051 Fireplace1-car Garage

Romantic, beautiful, and done. This designer-owned 1905 Gambrel Shingle-Style home on historic Meeting House Hill is a rare piece of Boston architectural history - meticulously restored by an award-winning design firm, with every detail already resolved, so you can simply move in and live. A picturesque wraparound porch with white columns and ceiling fans welcomes you home, setting the tone before you even reach the door. Inside, a grand foyer leads to formal living and dining rooms anchored by a wood-burning fireplace with original Chelsea tile - original character, fully brought back to life. Six bedrooms, two and a half baths and private parking are wrapped in finishes rarely found in a typical renovation, including a custom kitchen that earned Architectural Digest recognition: Thermador appliances, tiled walls, quartzite counters and a walk-in butler's pantry ready for effortless hosting from day one.The layout is finished top to bottom for how you actually live: four bedrooms and a spa-like bath on the second floor, and a third-floor retreat with peek-a-boo city views, two more bedrooms (one currently a studio), and a skylit bath. Central air conditioning and a tankless water heater keep the comfort as modern as the finishes throughout. Perched high on the hill, the home is fully set up to enjoy its elevation, with skyline views rarely found in a single-family Dorchester home. Outside, a manageable sunny backyard, garage-top patio and that wraparound porch are ready-made for slow mornings and al fresco dinners - no projects, no punch list just enjoy it.This is Dorchester living at its best - a tree-lined street once known as "Doctor's Row", moments from Ronan Park, neighborhood playgrounds, local shops and Comfort Kitchen, in one of Boston's most vibrant, fast-evolving communities. Two Red Line T stops keep you connected to everywhere else. A home this rare, this restored and this connected doesn't come along twice - schedule your private showing today.
