About This Home

As of August 2018

In the sought-after Radcliffe neighborhood, conveniently located to all the amenities of Mass. Ave. and Harvard Square; near the Law School, and an easy jaunt to Porter and Davis Squares. Ultra-charming, 5-room condominium in the most classically graceful of the Harlow buildings. The light-flooded interior, with windows on 3 sides, has wonderfully private open views. The living room is generously sized with a wood-burning fireplace; the elegant dining room has impressive crown molding and a delightful corner cabinet. If the living room or foyer were used for dining, the dining room would make a lovely bedroom. Natural light flows into the efficient kitchen, equipped with a gas stove and white glass-front cabinetry. Custom cabinetry, 2 closets, and double windows make the master bedroom especially pleasant; the single bedroom/office has a closet. Additional features include a renovated bathroom, abundant closets; extra storage, laundry facilities, and a fenced yard. Walk Score 97.
