Nestled on a beautifully landscaped .3-acre lot on a tree-lined street, this exquisite 1895 Colonial Revival was originally crafted by Albert Murdough for his family. Thoughtfully designed to embrace southwest exposures into the main living areas, the home is bathed in natural light, with soaring 9.5-foot ceilings, stained glass accents & elegant period details. At the heart of the home is a stunningly reimagined, gut-renovated kitchen featuring 4 distinct components designed by architects that blend modern functionality with quality craftsmanship: marble countertops, top-tier Subzero & Thermador appliances wrapped in custom Douglas fir cabinetry, seamlessly connecting to a covered porch, lush garden & 2-car EV charging garage. A grand staircase ascends past vibrant stained glass windows to the upper floors, and leads to 5 (or 6) generously sized bedrooms & 3 beautifully renovated bathrooms. An inspiring sanctuary in Watertown’s most sought-after area. Offers reviewed Tue April 1 @12pm
