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

New hardwood floors, in-unit laundry, and a high-efficiency heat pump for heating and cooling. Includes a valuable exclusive-use outdoor area - ideal for personal use and suitable for long-term car storage, fits most common vehicle sizes. In 2025, the entire building was upgraded with new HardiePlank siding and a sleek, durable metal roof (assessed value should be increased). Private entrance, officially deleaded, 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 neighborh
