About This Home

As of August 2021

Investors take notice! Fully leased unit through Aug 2022 with a tenant willing to vacate earlier. Nice sunny one bedroom (not a studio!) in the heart of Harvard Square! This location cannot be beat for university affiliates or professionals commuting downtown. Appointed with original wood floors, large windows and a lovely ornamental fireplace (to be inspected/certified before use), this condo will appeal to buyers in the market for a classic look and feel! Set back from the avenue, there are nice views of neighboring gardens to enjoy. The efficient kitchen and tiled bath are in good shape and tastefully updated over the years. Keep this as a long-term investment or plan for a future residence that is close to all conveniences, restaurants, boutiques, the Charles and more! Common laundry and extra storage can be found in the lower level. Easy highway access and steps to public transportation. A rare opportunity for a turnkey investment!
