They were going about their search for a new home in 2015, somewhat discouraged and frustrated by a limited and competitive market, when 35 Grandview Ave #2 popped up. In their wildest dreams, they never thought they would find a 3-bedroom space in an old stone CASTLE with an enormous private deck with an amazing view of the city. When they learned dogs were welcome, that there were 2 parking spaces (one in a garage, no less), a gunite pool, a/c, and places to garden, they were blown away.
For the past 9 years, they have lived in this beautiful spot, taken inspiration for their highly sought-after ceramics, enjoyed long walks with their dog through the Hillside area of Medford and the Middlesex Fells Reservation, and sat quietly on their deck, taking in the ever-changing sky. When it got hot outside, they simply jumped in the pool to cool down. Their business is growing, so they are headed to Rhode Island for a new, larger studio, thus recreating the opportunity for someone searching in this equally frustrating market to live in a Castle.
