Fabulous 3BR Condo in-between Harvard and Tufts

Description

This unit is ideal for a professor looking to be close to any of Boston’s or Cambridge’s numerous universities, or a doctor looking to be close to our world-class hospitals. This two-family house was gut renovated in 2022 and has finishes and furniture reminiscent of a Cape Cod beach house, but it's located in Somerville which is one of the trendiest locations in the Boston area. Hardwood floors throughout, custom cabinets, granite and quartz countertops, and a stacked stone gas fireplace. Steps away is the Cambridge boundary line where there is a shopping center, including a Star Market grocery store, hardware store, and the Porter Square T station where you can take the Red Line or commuter rail into Boston. Both Harvard and Tufts are a 1.2 mile walk in opposite directions. A network of MBTA busses serves the neighborhood for access around town when you don't want to walk or drive. And if you own a car, there is a covered one-car garage detached from the house, accessible by the back porch stairs or by the front via the driveway. Upon entering the unit's shoe and coat storage area, you walk upstairs to the first floor of the unit which comprises a kitchen/bar with Thermidor appliances and wine fridge, family TV room, living and dining rooms, sunroom and one bedroom and full bath. There is also a backdoor leading to an outside deck with a cafe table and chairs, and back stairs down to the garage; there is an outdoor gas grill which can be used but only on the ground level. Walking further upstairs to the second floor of the unit, which comprises two bedrooms each with separate baths (and where the principal bedroom has an enormous walk in shower and tub, as well as two walk-in closets), a study, and a washer/dryer area.
