Lovely 2 BR condo unit in a classic and historic brick building built in 1900+/-. Full unit renovation in 2016. Conveniently located just 2/10 of a mile from Central Square and the “T” station, just over a half mile to the Charles River. So much to do so nearby! 2nd floor corner unit overlooking common courtyard and lawn, open and bright layout features high ceilings, a spacious living room, and an updated kitchen and bathroom. The renovated kitchen features white cabinets, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and recessed and pendant lighting. Period details of the building include lots of brick, limestone cornices, and a marble front entryway. The unit includes hardwood flooring throughout, the previously mentioned high ceilings, and tilt-in insulated windows.. Other features include parking in a private parking lot next to the building (nice!), in-unit full sized stack laundry machines, and there is plenty of secured storage in the basement.
