About this home
Why rent when you can own? First-time buyers, this one's for you. Fully renovated in 2021, this top-floor 2-bedroom condo checks every box - modern finishes, unbeatable location and ownership costs that make real sense. Condo fees under $200/month and 2026 taxes under $1,200/year make this one of the most affordable entries into homeownership in Boston.Just 3 doors from the Shawmut Red Line stop, commuting couldn't be easier. The open-concept layout floods the space with natural light, featuring custom shiplap walls, statement lighting and a kitchen with quartz countertops, custom cabinetry and stainless steel appliances. Top-floor position means added privacy and views that set this unit apart. In-unit laundry hookups, huge basement storage and a shared backyard included. Walk to Via Cannuccia, American Provisions, BTone, and everything Dorchester's Shawmut-Ashmont corridor has to offer. Easy to show!
