About This Home
Stylish and fully renovated 1-bed, 1-bath first-floor gem just a 6-minute walk to iconic Davis Square and 9 minutes to Ball Sq Green Line!

Features include new hardwood floors, in-unit laundry, and a high-efficiency heat pump for heating and cooling. Includes rare exclusive off-street parking! In 2025, the entire building was upgraded with new Hardie Plank siding and a sleek, durable metal roof. Private entrance, officially deleaded, and located on a quiet tree-lined street near a lovely park. Enjoy unbeatable access and an easy commute to major universities, hospitals, attractions, Government Center, and downtown Boston. Low condo fee of only ~$70/month! A rare, move-in-ready opportunity in a top transit-connected neighborhood!
