Why buy a condo when you can create your own little slice of paradise, just minutes from downtown! Owned by the same family for many years, this diamond in the rough is ready to be shined! Ripe w/potential, on a larger lot overlooking Mother's Park greenspace, you'll find this adorable, cottage style home. In the late 90's the foundation was rebuilt, gas systems installed & exterior windows & siding were replaced to ensure this gem will still be standing for another 150 years! On the main floor you'll find a nicely proportioned living room, eat-in kitchen, full bath & a laundry/sunroom which overlooks a very sweet yard, patio & perennial gardens. On the upper level the 2 bedrooms are evenly split, one w/a large walk-in closet, the other w/access to a private balcony w/views the abutting park, playground & sports complex. What an ideal location to start your home ownership journey - just minutes to the green line T, MIT, Kendall Sq. + loads of parks, multicultural shops & restaurants!
