Well-maintained third floor condo located 500 feet from the Green Line! Great opportunity for an investor looking for a unit with solid rental history or an owner occupant looking to call Boston home while taking advantage of the city's generous residential exemption, which reduces the annual property taxes by up to $4,353 for the current fiscal year. This sun-filled condo has tall ceilings, hardwood floors in good condition, lots of natural sunlight, and closets in the bedroom, bathroom, and entryway. The kitchen allows for comfortable meal prep, with plenty of counter space, storage, and a range hood that vents out. Recent building improvements include a substantial roof repair and a 2-year-old heating/hot water system. Secure extra storage space, bike storage, and laundry located in the basement. Condo fee includes heat, hot water, snow removal, and common area maintenance. Pet friendly!
