Welcome to 47 Academy Hill, a stately Victorian-era Colonial where timeless craftsmanship meets modern comfort in the heart of Watertown. Offering more than 3,700 square feet of beautifully maintained living space, this exceptional home is just a five-minute walk from The Taft School and minutes from downtown shops, restaurants, and amenities. A gracious wraparound porch creates an impressive first impression and sets the tone for the remarkable period details found throughout. Inside, soaring 10-foot ceilings, extensive moldings, custom built-ins, and generously proportioned rooms reflect a level of craftsmanship that would be extraordinarily difficult to reproduce in today's building climate. The versatile layout includes several en suite bedrooms and baths, providing excellent flexibility for family, guests, or multigenerational living. A bright sun porch overlooks the private backyard and in-ground pool, creating a beautiful space to relax and enjoy the changing seasons. The pool area offers a peaceful setting for summer entertaining and everyday enjoyment. Rich in character and filled with irreplaceable architectural details, this distinctive home presents a rare opportunity to own one of Watertown's truly special properties.
