About this home

Charming Radcliffe-neighborhood studio in a circa-1920 Harlow building -- the perfect pied-a-terre, primary residence or investment unit. This lovely home features a large main room that easily accommodates separate living and sleeping spaces (could be divided by adding a wall), a 2016-renovated kitchen and just-renovated bath, plus several closets. The wall of windows overlook grassy area at the rear of the building, giving the feel of a tranquil oasis. Other desirable features include high ceilings, hardwood floors, original mouldings, woodburning fireplace, and refurbished windows with custom shades & shutters. A private storage room, common bike area and laundry in the basement round out the perks. Prime location just a half mile to Harvard Law and the Red Line train at Porter with numerous cafes, restaurants and conveniences just around the corner on Mass Ave. Well-maintained building with a professionally-managed and proactive association. Condo fee includes heat & HW.
