Welcome to 5 Kenwood st #2, a renovated condo on the 1st floor and finished lower level. It was fully renovated in 2026 and includes a high-efficiency heat-pump cooling and heating system supported by a gas heating backup system. The building was also upgraded in 2025 with new HardiePlank siding and a durable metal roof. The unit includes exclusive rights to an area large enough for 2 off-street parking spaces. Located on a quiet tree-lined one-way street between Davis Sq and Tufts University, near a park, the home is within a 6-minute walk to Davis Sq (Red Line) and 9 mins to Ball Sq (Green Line). Low condo fee of about $200/month. The layout allows convenient separation into a rental one-bedroom unit and an owner’s 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom living area, all with private entrances. Unit #2 may also be purchased together with Unit #3 for expanded multi-generational living or rental possibilities.
