About This Home
As of June 2022Come check out this bright, Philly-style condo in one of Somerville’s most desirable neighborhoods. Just 1 block to the Ball Square Green Line Extension, and walking distance to Davis Square, Porter Square, and Tufts University. This 2 bed, 1 bath condo features high ceilings and hardwood flooring throughout. Upon entrance, the over-sized foyer welcomes you to the charming living room, which flows seamlessly into the formal dining room. Just off the dining room is a laundry room/pantry, and good sized kitchen. Completing the first floor is a renovated full bathroom and one bedroom, with a 2nd bedroom just up the stairs. A freshly painted back deck leads to a spacious, fully-fenced yard. Private basement offers plenty of additional storage. All big-ticket items replaced within the last 5 years (see feature sheet attached). A very low condo fee and prime location on a quiet 1-way street make this home a perfect opportunity for any couple, small family, or savvy investor.
