About This Home
As of June 2017This spacious, sunny condo less than a block from the corner of Harvard and Commonwealth underwent extensive renovations in the fall of 2014, including an all new kitchen (stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, new cabinets), updates in the bathroom (new sink, vanity, and toilet, re-glazed tub), redone wood floors, and a top-to-bottom paint job. Oversized living room with decorative fireplace, dining room, two bedrooms, and a large entry foyer; the layout works for multiple configurations, including turning the living room into a - huge - bedroom. Good closet space plus a private storage unit in the basement, which is where the laundry is. Deeded off-st parking is behind the building. Too many stores and restaurants in this burgeoning neighborhood to list here! The T is right outside, as is a bus that will take you to Longwood Medical or Harvard Square. Great for owner occupants or investors - the very definition of a "Brookline alternative."
