About This Home

As of November 2021

Lovely 2-bedroom condo located on a one way tree-lined residential side street half a mile from both Davis and Porter Squares. Lexington Park and the Somerville Community Path are right across the street, making for a pleasant commute to the Red Line. This classic Victorian Philly-style retains some remarkable period details, such as the spindle arch and leaded glass windows in the foyer, pocket doors between the living and dining rooms, and a built-in china hutch. Modern amenities aren't in short supply either, with a stainless/granite eat-in kitchen, in-unit laundry, central air conditioning, and garage parking. Private front and back porches, along with a shared back yard, provide plenty of access to the outdoors, and the large unfinished basement is available for storage. Many great restaurants, independent shops, and recreational activities are close by. New roof and gutters within the last 6 years, and the exterior of the house was just freshly painted.
