About this home

Rare corner 2+ bedroom layout—one of the largest & most versatile floor plans in the building. At the base of Avon Hill, this handsome brick Harlow building offers a spacious home overlooking a tranquil courtyard with mature trees & the gardens of Gray Street, with exceptional storage including seven closets. The well-designed single-level layout features a welcoming foyer, a generous living room with fireplace, and a formal dining room that flows seamlessly to the kitchen—ideal for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen was fully renovated to the studs around 2020 with updated wiring. Two well-proportioned bedrooms plus a flexible office/den provide excellent versatility, with thoughtful separation between living and sleeping areas for added privacy. Heat and hot water are included in the condo fee; pet-friendly for owner-occupants and professionally managed. Ideally located on a tree-lined street between Harvard and Porter Squares, moments from an array of restaurants + cafes.
