The 10-room, 2,185-square-foot Victorian at 59 Boston Street in the East Somerville-Prospect Hill borderlands of Somerville dates from the early 1890s, and needs some fixing-up
But the house does come with all the urban-dream trimmings in that regard: plenty of space and natural light, and touches such as antique tin ceilings and a decorative fireplace. There is the potential for five bedrooms too.
The house is asking $995,000 through Re/Max Destiny.
