Property Description
Stately, romantic, and full of character, 1448 Longfellow is a historic colonial in the heart of Boston-Edison. Step inside and notice the original plaster detailing, French doors, period light fixtures and sconces, and original hardwood floors, all filled with natural light. Step inside to find a bright, airy living room anchored by a cozy gas fireplace, perfect for relaxing evenings. The spacious rooms are made for entertaining, and the updated kitchen with butler’s pantry makes hosting easy. Upstairs, the second floor offers four spacious rooms, including one with a sleeping porch or den. The third floor is a private retreat with a primary suite and en suite bath, plus a large, fabulous built-in closet that works as a studio, playroom, or yoga space, or converts to another bedroom. With nearly 3,500 square feet across three levels, 6 bedrooms (including the flex room), and 2.2 baths, there’s room to spread out. Updated plumbing and electrical add peace of mind, and the large unfinished basement is ready for whatever you imagine. Outside, a newer 2-car garage and concrete driveway add everyday ease. The front and back yards have been freshly landscaped, with new flower beds in front, a cement pad for the grill, and a paver seating area in the private backyard. This is a truly special home—one that must be experienced to be fully appreciated. Walk to The Congregation and Gordon Park, with New Center, Midtown, Milwaukee Junction, and Downtown Detroit just minutes away.
