This four-level home in the heart of Charlestown Gaslight neighborhood was transformed from a three-bedroom, 2.5 baths to a four-bedroom and 3.5 baths without gaining additional square footage. The historic home perfectly blends new, modern features and custom details with the existing and timeless charm.
On the first floor, the foyer is welcoming and bright, with an eye-catching curved staircase. A bright white kitchen provides the most significant “a-ha” moment in the home. Once a dark and tight space, it now is the perfect blend of old and new, with some truly amazing and unique details.
Other changes include converting a large bathroom into a bedroom and building an additional bathroom where the back staircase was once located.
