Sold for $880,000
Like a good wine, some properties definitely get better with time. When she bought it, it was a nice unit with a big yard, but the unit was hot in the summer and the yard was nothing more than dirt. Over the past 10 years, she has not only improved the unit (added central a/c, a ½ bath, & in-unit laundry) she has cultivated and crafted her backyard into an exquisite garden and peaceful haven for her and her family. With 1,072 square feet, 72 Line Street, Unit 1 has 3 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, a classically charming living room and dining room, and an eat-in kitchen that was updated in the early 2000s. Open the kitchen door and you find yourself on a Ipe wood wrap-around deck that leads to a beautiful private garden with two pretty stone patios (one for dining and one for sitting) filled with beautiful plantings. Imagine the “Secret Garden” in Somerville on the Cambridge line, sandwiched between Inman, Harvard, Central and Union Squares, and you will know why this property, like a fine wine, should be savored.
