Front exterior of 75 School Street: a new navy two-residence home with white trim, a bay window and stone front steps

Spring Hill, Somerville

75 School Street

Two new three-bedroom residences, designed from the ground up on a quiet Somerville street.

Set on a tranquil stretch of School Street, these two residences were designed from the ground up with modern layouts, quality finishes, and the kind of details hard to find in Somerville's older housing stock.

Each unit is thoughtfully laid out with three bedrooms and 2.5 baths, anchored by a spacious primary suite. One home offers a fully finished lower level, and the other a massive private roof deck with sweeping views of both the Boston skyline and Somerville's mature canopy.

Architectural touches you won't find anywhere else

Wide staircases

Generous, open stairs connect each level with an ease rarely found in city homes.

Clerestory windows

High-set windows draw daylight deep into the living spaces while preserving privacy.

A private roof deck

Unit 2's roof deck looks out over the Boston skyline and Spring Hill's tree canopy.

A kitchen at the center of it all

Both units are appointed with Carrara-veined quartz countertops, Ice White shaker cabinetry, and top-of-the-line Thermador appliances. Each kitchen opens beautifully to the dining space and a living room more than 37 feet long, so the cook never misses the conversation.

Two residences, two ways to live

Both homes offer three bedrooms and 2.5 baths. Unit 1 pairs the main floor with a finished lower level, while Unit 2 spans the upper levels and opens onto a private roof deck.
