Great opportunity to buy into the Somerville market — a renovated multifamily property for less than the price of a single-family home in the highly desirable Porter Square / Harvard / Union Square area.This property offers a 4bed/4bath upper duplex and a 2bed/2bath lower unit with a strong rental history and the flexibility to live in one unit while renting the other, or rent both units and immediately generate cash flow. Units will be delivered vacant. Previous rents were $3,400/month for Unit 1 and $5,800/month for Unit 2. Renovated in 2022 with condo-quality finishes throughout, including Porcelanosa tile, Kohler vanities, and fixtures. With a Walk Score of 87 and located less than a mile from MBTA Red Line, Green Line, and bus service, this home offers exceptional access to everything the area has to offer. Just minutes from Harvard Law, Harvard Graduate campuses, and Tufts.
