The dream is real: good coffee, a great bookstore, lauded restaurants, and the Red Line T within a block of home? Welcome to this thoughtfully updated, character-rich one-bedroom in Porter Square. Graced with an exposed brick wall that runs the full length of the property, this raised first-floor unit offers a wonderfully open living area/kitchen to the front and a comfortably proportioned bedroom at the rear. There is good ceiling height, oak floors, and recessed lighting throughout. The tiled bath and exquisitely efficient kitchen have both been fully refreshed. There is laundry and a private storage room in the basement, as well as a just-rebuilt common roof deck with views across Avon Hill and to Porter Square. Such a find!
