Welcome to 7 Filbert Street, one of Medford's most iconic historical homes, built by the Prickett family in 1844, in the heart of Medford Village. This federal style, 5-bedroom colonial home has had only five owners in 178 years! Original features of the home, such as the original wide plank pine floor, have been gracefully restored to honor the old charm, while tastefully integrating the improvements of modern luxury. The moment you step foot inside this pre-Civil war era home, you're dazzled by the grand foyer with its wide staircase, high ceiling, chair rail paired with a timeless print wallpaper, and a functional layout. The formal living room to your right flows beautifully into the formal dining room… with the option to create that separation by closing the massive solid dividing doors. The improvements into modern luxury are most apparent by stepping foot into the brand new kitchen with white shaker cabinets, black hardwood flooring, quartz countertops, chevron tile backsplash, farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances, recessed lighting, and spacious center island with overhang and a modern light fixture above. Through the sliding glass door is the multi-tiered wooden deck overlooking the private double lot. You may also enjoy this view from the sunroom off the kitchen which features tile flooring and the original exterior brick façade. As you may expect from such a historic home, there is a secret passageway off the kitchen with a spiral staircase that provides direct access to the carpeted first bedroom and the full bathroom with tub shower and connects back to the main staircase. Continue up to the spacious second and third bedrooms with the original wide plank flooring and dividing door. Also on this level is a large and updated full bathroom with tub shower and tile surround. Continue up to the third floor for a sitting room as well as bedrooms four and five. A mini-split system has been professionally installed throughout the home (2022) to ensure year-round comfortability. There is also a brand new water heater (2022), brand new roof and gutters (2023). This is a unique opportunity to own approximately 3,000 square feet of historic beauty on a 1/3 acre lot directly across the street from quaint Still Park. Also, just a short walk to thriving Main Street, breweries, restaurants, coffee shop, plenty of shopping and within walking distance to elementary and middle schools.
