MOTIVATED SELLER on this rare opportunity to build equity! Similar, nearby homes are selling in the mid-$900,000s! In a neighborhood of handsome Victorians, 85 Fessenden is the real deal. With its stained glass detail, French doors, original fireplace, and high ceilings, this home has timeless charm. And its many bedrooms and bonus rooms suit it perfectly to the diverse jobs we ask our homes to do today. In a thoughtful concession to contemporary lifestyles, the kitchen has been opened to the dining room, creating a bright and airy space at the heart of the home. Light cabinets, granite countertops, and sea-green tile keep the palette fresh and clean. The living room remains a special space, ornamented with French doors, a bay window, and the antique tiled fireplace. And while the pretty front entry makes a warm welcome to the home, it's the back entry that will win your heart: It's the super-sized mud room of your dreams, with ample space for boots, coats, muddy dogs, and outdoor toys. The second floor offers three bedrooms, including a treehouse-style room overlooking the large back yard. A fourth room could serve as office space, nursery, or a walk-in closet. Two full baths serve this level--one featuring a clawfoot tub, and the other with a contemporary pebble-tiled tub. The majority of the hardwood floors have been preserved throughout, and you'll find a lot of fresh paint. From the second floor, a quirky staircase leads to the top of the house, where you'll find two charming bonus rooms, finished loft-style with interesting angles under the roof. Outdoors, the large lot leaves plenty of room for gardens and games, and off-street parking. Just a short walk away you'll find both Deering Oaks Park with the Farmer's Market; and the Baxter Boulevard trail circling Back Cove. The airport, the train station and the Old Port are each a few minutes away. The charm, large size, and location of this beauty will support whatever updates you make. Don't miss this
