About this home

Rarely available top floor unit in high owner occupied complex in a great location - just blocks to Chesnut Hill Reservoir, Cleveland Circle and Brighton Center; many transportation options from this location.

The last good feature is the easily accessible private off-street PARKING SPACE!
