4 Beds ⋅ 4 Baths ⋅ 73587948 MLS

Built by Boardman + Company, 214 Garden Street looks straight at Danehy Park, and the house is built around the view: tall windows on three sides of the living room, and a roof deck above the treetops. The front door opens into a mudroom, with a bench to sit on and hooks for everything else. In the living room, the trees in the park do the decorating, and the light shines through the dining room into a kitchen of cream cabinetry and marble, with a paneled fridge, a pro range, and a white oak island that seats four without anyone pulling up a stool. Off the dining room, a slider leads to a small deck and down into a private garden with a stone patio, a square of lawn, and a cedar fence all around. Over 2,600 SF, with 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths: two bedrooms, a full bath, and the laundry share the second floor, and the third is the primary's, with a bedroom lit from two sides, a walk-in closet with the built-ins already done, a double-vanity bath in white oak and marble, and the office that opens onto that deck. Downstairs, eight-foot ceilings and oversized windows make the lower level a place for movie nights, a guest who stays the week, or the Peloton: media room, fourth bedroom, full bath. Underneath the calm is a serious house: all electric, built to the stretch code, with heat pumps in four zones and an ERV. The outdoor space extends across the street to Danehy Park and St. Peter's Field, and the ever popular, award-winning Universal Design Playground is just around the corner. Garden Street runs straight to Harvard Square; Whole Foods and Trader Joe's are close by; and Fresh Pond's miles of trails are a few blocks off, so the dog wins too.
