About This Home
As of September 2019Sunny, well-kept, top-floor condo in a three-unit building, on a tree-lined one-way street between Central and Harvard squares. Classic details throughout, including warm-hued fir floors, distinctive moldings, and a three-sided bay in the front bedroom. Clever layout makes it feel much larger than the square footage suggests. Open-plan dining and living rooms, eat-in kitchen with quartz countertops and pantry, and beautiful views across the rooftops of the Riverside neighborhood. Close to fun shops, restaurants, live music venues, and the Red Line in vibrant Central Square.
