About this home

Charming, well-apportioned one-bedroom apartment in a delightful turn-of-the-century brick building nicely situated between Harvard and Porter Squares! A combination living and dining room features a working fireplace and tall windows. The bright eat-in kitchen includes a dishwasher and gas stove. The bedroom contains wall sconces and two more large windows. Coat and linen closets in the front and side hall leading to the bathroom both offer convenient storage in addition to those found in the bedroom and living room. Window air conditioners available for warmer months. Heat, hot water and an exclusive use storage unit are included in the rent! Adding laundry facilities located in the basement into the equation leaves leave little to be desired in a fantastic location.
