The House of Blue is a brand new, thoughtful build by the team at MacArthur Construction Co. Sited down a private lane in the heart of Huron Village the home is a rare combination of a single family with separate 1br au pair or in-law apt. and oversized, two car garage. The design is a blend of iconic NE shapes with tight lines, playful overhangs and a crisp, zinc metal roof. The soothing interior is a nod to mid century modern. Included are 5 bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms, media room, gym area and tree top study. Sip morning coffee or enjoy the afternoon sun on one of the many decks, the largest of which, on the second floor, connects the main house to the au pair apt. Highlights include hydronic radiant heat (garage, too), rich tones of hand rubbed wood paneling, 1/4 sawn oak floors and hand made tiles, all bathed in light from oversized European windows. Walk to Fresh Pond Reservation, bike to Arsenal Yards or simply stroll out the door to the quaint shops and restaurants of Huron Village
