Did somebody say "rustic charm?" No? Well, we did. At least, those are the words that sprang to mind when we beheld this just-listed Victorian at 23 Gray Street in the upper reaches of the South End. Why? Its front and back parlors; dark hardwood floors; exposed brick; private garden; and what looks like a screen door between that garden and the kitchen (Any Town, U.S.A.). That, and it does not appear to have central air, something that definitely seems rustic (though not altogether charming) on a day like this. Yours for $1,410,000.
