Recently featured in the Boston Globe for Property of the Week!! Charming Spring Hill first floor 1-bedroom, 1-bath condo with in-unit laundry. The building sits near the community bike path, the Armory, and the new green line extension. This building was converted into condos in the 1980's, and the whole property was renovated minus the slate roof at that time. The condo has floor to floor carpets in the living room, bedrooms, and halls. The spacious kitchen that opens out into the dining area, has vinyl floors, well maintained counters, a dishwasher, an electric stove, and a fridge. The bedroom and living room also feature newer ceiling fans. The bedroom has a large closest with upper storage and a linen closet. The condo and property have been well maintained over the last 30+ years. Each unit gets 1 assigned parking spot in the rear of the building and a spacious storage area. The hot water tank was replaced earlier this year.
