Step into the timeless elegance of 242 Norwood Avenue, a remarkably preserved, exquisitely detailed three-unit residence built in 1894. As one of the original homes on the street, this pinnacle of 19th-century architecture showcases the enduring beauty and craftsmanship of a bygone era, gracefully updated for modern living. The first-floor unit is a breathtaking display of early design artistry. From the grand woodwork to the majestic fireplace and glowing hardwood floors, every detail echoes the grace and splendor of its historic roots. Antique light fixtures cast a warm ambiance through the expansive, inviting rooms, preserving the spirit of the home’s original era. The second unit, located on the upper level, is a beautifully arranged, spacious apartment featuring handsome hardwood floors, generously sized living spaces, and a private balcony perfect for quiet evenings or sunlit mornings. This unit will be leased beginning July 15th, with tenancy extending through next year. The third unit, also located on the upper level, is a delightful one-bedroom residence offering refinished hardwood floors, an impressive kitchen, and an abundance of charm. This unit is currently leased through October 1st. Recent enhancements to the property include fresh exterior paint, a brand new extra-wide concrete driveway, and a detached two-car garage. The home also comes fully equipped with all appliances included and offers the convenience of coin-operated laundry in the basement. Outdoor spaces include a classic front porch and an elevated upper balcony, offering inviting areas to enjoy the seasons. Whether enjoyed from the welcoming porch or the serene upstairs balcony, the setting offers a peaceful backdrop for everyday living. The home is also conveniently close to seasonal events, including the beloved Garden Walk and more. Properties of this caliber—with refined character, endless potential, and storybook charm—are rare. This is your opportunity to own a true architectural gem that stands proudly as a cornerstone of Norwood Avenue since 1894.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
