About this home

Pet friendly! Best location! This freshly renovated front facing unit features an open concept living area with an updated kitchen with new appliances, new hardwood floors, an abundance of natural light and excellent ceiling height. Despite facing Comm Ave., the apartment is very quiet, due to thick walls and new windows.The location can't be beat -- close to everything! The green line B is 2 min away, C and D 10 min walking. Near to both Boston College and Boston University. Shops, restaurants, walking/jogging trails all w/in walking distance. Laundry in the building next door. Affordable parking available for rent nearby. The building is pet-friendly and features a common yard space as well as a designated dog area. Unit currently rented for $2500/mo. and lease runs out on 08/31/2027.
