About This Home

As of July 2024

Great Opportunity! Bright one bedroom condominium in Prime Davis Square location. This condo, on tree-lined Chester Street on the fringe of Davis Square, is minutes from Harvard, the Davis T Redline, and Porter Square. This top-floor/rear unit is in a brick building and part of a well run, professionally-managed association. This condo is ideal for an investor or savvy end-user who is tired of paying increasing rents. It has been upgraded with hardwood floors and an updated tile bath. The kitchen has white cabinets, granite counters, stainless steel appliances (dishwasher and disposal to be replaced). There is very generous closet space. The monthly HOA fee is low. Heat and hot water are included in the fee. The condo includes an off street parking space. Laundry and some storage in the lower level complete the package. A wonderful place to call home in an A+ location.
