About this home
October FIRST! Set on the first floor of a 2 family home lies this Recently Renovated, sun-soaked two bedroom, one bathroom apartment. Offering light on all sides, you will love the front porch, perfect to sit out on a summer's evening, and to welcome guests as they arrive. Front facing living room leads to a separate dining room with great built-ins. Newly renovated kitchen offers brand new counters, cabinetry and appliances. Two spacious bedrooms, separated from one another by the freshly renovated bathroom, a nice touch. Additional linen closet directly across from the bath, and private laundry in the basement. A shared backyard, and off-street parking for 2 cars, completes the ensemble. Palmer St. offers easy access to The Mystic River (Bring your Kayak!), Dugger Park, and Arlington High School. Close Proximity to Mass Ave, Mystic Valley Parkway, Multiple Bus Routes, and Alewife Station.
