About This Home

As of August 2023

Gorgeous Prospect Hill two-bedroom condominium ideally located a stone’s throw from vibrant Union Square with all its distinctive cafes, shops, and restaurants. This tree-top oasis is a perfect combination of thoughtful updates – granite counters with stainless appliances, maple cabinetry, tiled bath – and immaculate original details – stained glass window, built-in hutch, butler’s pantry, gleaming woodwork and hardwood floors throughout. Excellent proximity to area highways, buses and proposed Green Line "T" stop for easy commuting. Private outdoor space on the freshly painted and generously sized deck. Exclusive-use laundry and extra storage in the basement of this pet-friendly, well-maintained building (see attached updates – too many to list!). OH Sat 6/18 12-1:30 and Sun 6/19 2-3:30. Offers, if any, due Tuesday 6/21 by 12 PM.
