About this home

Steps to Raymond Park! Nestled on a leafy street in Neighborhood 9, between Porter Square and Huron Village, this first floor, 2 bed/1 bath condo impeccably blends style and functionality. Walk through antique Spanish doors to the open living/dining room with built-in teak bookcases. The eat-in kitchen is custom-designed with butcher block counters, high-end appliances, and plenty of storage. Glass french doors open to the large, sun-drenched private deck and patio with perennial garden - summer BBQs await! Two bedrooms, each with spacious, customized closets, and a full bath complete the main level. Downstairs: a bright, multi-purpose hobby/office/laundry room, and direct access to the extensive basement storage space. A 10-minute walk to the conveniences of the Porter Square MBTA and shopping center, within blocks of neighborhood delights like Formaggio and Danehy Park, and 1 mile to Harvard Square. Not to be forgotten: A large mudroom, off-street parking, and central A/C.
