About this home

This 6/6 2-family is ideally located in the heart of Kirkland Village, just a short walk to such noted eateries and shops as Dali, The Biscuit and The Kirkland Tap & Trotter. The Wine and Cheese Cask as well as Whole Foods are also just around the corner! It’s a short walk to Inman Square and vibrant Union Square, where a Green Line station is planned, and to all the attractions and amenities of world-renowned Harvard Square. The Harvard University School of Arts and Sciences campus is just 5 minutes away. This is a great rental property, or could be converted to condos or brought back to a spacious single family! Wonderful fenced-in back yard. Electrical has been updated to 100amps/unit. There is an attic accessible through from the 2nd floor apartment. Can be delivered vacant at closing. See attached brochure for more details.
