This iconic Victorian home is currently comprised of three units but could be brought back to a magnificent single family, anchoring the Chester St. Historic District. Along with the expansive front porch, there is a cute sitting deck off the second floor and a private third floor deck with unobstructed views of the neighborhood. Within steps of vibrant Davis Square, the red line and a block away from Mass Ave in Cambridge, the location can't be beat. This Grande Dame has great bones, an elegant demeanor, and awaits the deft touch of new stewardship.
