About this home

OH CANCELLED: Seller has accepted an offer. Hidden gem alert! Just steps from the buzz of Porter Square, this light-filled 1-bedroom condo packs style, function, and convenience into a delightful space. Tucked away from the street in a gracious colonial building, you’re only 3 blocks from the Red Line and Mass Ave’s restaurants, cafés, and shops. Inside, the open layout maximizes every square foot. A handsome kitchen is outfitted with granite counters, stainless appliances, wood cabinetry, and is open to the combined living and dining room. The in-unit laundry makes life easy, while central air conditioning ensures year-round comfort. Your own parking spot (plus guest parking!) and a spacious private storage area offer everyday convenience. Commuters will appreciate quick access to the Red Line MBTA station (.5 mi) at Porter Square, plus bus lines along Somerville Avenue. Whether you’re a first-time buyer or an investor looking for an A+ location, this condo is the total package.
