This will be hitting MLS tomorrow but thought I’d give a little sneak peek now…
Village Street is such a great little hidden street, tucked into Somerville’s “Duck Alley” behind local gems such as The Biscuit, Wine & Cheese Cask and Dalí. Most of the homes here are luxury condos (the lowest sale price of the past ten listings here was $879) carved out of funky industrial spaces. And yet, there is still the opportunity to find something like my new listing… at $515,000 a bargain for the street…
Airy and bright condo in amazing location between Harvard & Union Squares! This second floor unit offers a smart open layout, high ceilings, bamboo floors and plenty of windows throughout. Fully renovated in 2004, the home is move-in ready and features two bedrooms, a cute modern kitchen, in-unit laundry, additional storage in the basement, a small back deck, a great shared backyard and parking (two spaces rotate between the three units). Extremely convenient Kirkland Village location with a Walkscore of 89 (“Very Walkable”). The Harvard Square T is just a mile away, and there are many great cafés, restaurants, bars, and entertainment venues in every direction — truly urban living at its best! Well-managed, 100% owner-occupied and pet-friendly association.
