Welcome to this top-floor loft style penthouse set on a quiet, tree-lined street in one of the most sought-after pockets of Somerville. An open, airy layout with restored wood beams and natural light flooding through several skylights defines the home. Inside, you'll find a fully renovated interior grounded in clean & timeless finishes. The kitchen is composed of custom cabinetry, quartz surfaces, stainless steel appliances, and a Bertazzoni range. The intentional kitchen design opens seamlessly into the main living area, creating a perfect space for hosting. Modern comforts include central air, in-unit laundry, a private deck, basement storage, and deeded parking. Positioned just moments from the community path, the Ball Square Green Line, and the evolving mix of restaurants/shops in Ball and Davis Square, the location offers a distinctly Somerville balance of calm residential setting and immediate access to the city. This home won't be available for long!
