About This Home
As of December 2020Bright and spacious upper-level 3-bedroom in the heart of Central Square! Renovated down to the studs in 2006, this home is move-in ready and offers many great features – high ceilings, lots of windows, well-proportioned rooms and a large covered deck off the kitchen! The flexible floor plan provides great options to suit your needs – use it as a true 3-bed with open living/dining/kitchen area, or use one of the bedrooms as a formal dining room, home office, playroom, media room, etc. Additional perks include central air, in-unit laundry (in an actual laundry room!), and a lovely landscaped common garden & patio area for grilling. All this in an uber-convenient location just two blocks from the Red Line T, within a mile of Harvard, MIT, and the River, and in the heart of the city’s best restaurants, cafes, bakeries, several grocery stores, and multiple entertainment venues. Walkscore & Bikescore = 99! Well-run, financially-sound and pet-friendly association.
