About This Home

Rare opportunity to own a turn-key investment unit in Boston’s Fenway neighborhood. This apartment features high ceilings, gas-forced hot water heat, and laundry in the building.This unit requires almost no management involvement by the owner. The building has been managed by the same owner for years, and the current unit manager has also overseen this unit long-term and knows it well.Almost no rental properties like this ever come to market in this highly desirable location. Many changed hands decades ago, and owners have held on as rents and values continue to climb steadily.There are no true comps in this area, as few owners ever sell similar rental units.Unit is sold as-is.
