About This Home
Nestled within a classic mid-rise in the heart of Brighton, this charming 1BR condo offers an elegant sanctuary where urban energy meets serene living. Positioned with immediate access to B, C, and D Green Line routes, the home provides an unparalleled connection to Brookline, Allston, Whole Foods, and Chestnut Hill, all while benefiting from the Boston residential tax exemption. Tucked gracefully at the rear of the building, it remains a private haven where the spacious bedroom and sun-drenched, eat-in kitchen are bathed in quiet solitude and natural light, while the airy living room frames peaceful, tree-top views beneath soaring ceilings. Refreshed within the last 2 years with new windows, updated appliances, and a modernized bath, the residence marries timeless comfort—anchored by a generous bedroom with double closets—with the inspiring potential to evolve into a seamless, open-concept layout with a custom pantry or laundry. A perfect gem awaiting its next chapter.
