Between all the new condo buildings and duplex conversions in Somerville, a bona fide single-family home is a real find. As such, the renovated 1920s mansard-roofed Victorian at 15 Porter Street is one hot commodity — one that comes with two off-street parking spaces to boot. No circling the block to park? Check.
No sharing a wall with neighbors? Check. It’s real estate heaven. Of course, there’s so much more to the home, located just moments from Porter Square and all the dining, shopping, entertainment, and people-watching your heart desires.
Inside, the home was transformed with fresh, contemporary design and architectural details. Step inside to an airy, open-concept main level, where high ceilings and custom wood accents complement the natural light that pours in from every angle. Rebelling against the “greige” trend, the wood features throughout the home recall a Scandinavian-inspired design that feels warm and comforting.
The spacious, stylish kitchen and dining area invite gatherings, while a convenient pantry and powder room add modern functionality. Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite is a sunlit retreat featuring a wall of south-facing windows, a skylight, a private deck, ample walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bathroom with a soaking tub and dual vanity. Three additional bedrooms, including one with its own en-suite, provide flexible space for family, guests, or home office needs.
The lower level offers a cozy den and full bath, perfect for visitors .
