Perched atop a handsome two-family home in sought-after Ball Sq GLX, this condominium seamlessly blends timeless character with modern sophistication. Bathed in natural light, the versatile floor plan offers two generous bedrooms plus a private office or you can expand into the unfinished attic. The thoughtfully renovated kitchen showcases stylish finishes and contemporary functionality with granite countertops and updated appliances. High-efficiency mini-split systems provide customized comfort year-round. Your private covered deck and common yard provide additional living space. Elegant living and dining spaces create an inviting setting for both everyday living and entertaining. Additional private storage and off-street parking add a rare convenience, while the home's prime location places you moments from Ball Sq, Davis Sq, Porter Sq, or Tufts University. This is a rare opportunity to enjoy elevated living in one of Somerville's most vibrant and desirable neighborhoods.
