    What's special

    Beautifully reimagined in 2020, this carefully curated home combines contemporary restraint w/creative flair to offer this stunning, upper-level condominium. Designed to embrace & enhance the original, Turn-of-the-Century charm, no surface was left untouched! Arrive & an art-deco style front porch will welcome you inside, where a generous foyer doubles as a mudroom & opens to a private front deck. Lovely moldings & high ceilings set the stage for the living & dining rooms to share space for a relaxed vibe. A new, incredibly stylish eat-in kitchen offers the perfect spot for every day meals & accesses a rear deck which feels like an extension of living space. Two spacious bedrooms & a beautifully renovated bath complete the main level. A fenced-in yard w/mature plantings & a patio seal the deal - all on an incredibly friendly street! Enjoy time off as a quick 1/4 mile stroll will land you on Mass Ave. to enjoy loads of multicultural restaurants, shops & theaters + the 77 bus to the T!
