About this home
Elegant Harvard Square one-bedroom in a classic c. 1929 brick building, with unmatched walkable convenience to Harvard University. Enter at the lion's head fountain in the sunken garden tucked off Chauncy Street, into an elevatored lobby with mailroom, laundry down the hall, and access to the lush, common rear courtyard. The unit entrance opens to a generous foyer with both a coat and a linen closet. A formal living room is centered around a brick fireplace and windows that fill the condo with natural light, and high views of leafy Chauncy Street's eclectic mix of classic and modernist architecture. The bedroom is setback and east-facing for privacy and morning light. The eat-in kitchen features stainless appliances, and honed quartz countertops. One block to Harvard Law School, and a short walk to Harvard Yard and the Red Line. Buyers agents encouraged.
