About this home
Welcome to 5 Ware Street, where thoughtful design meets modern living in Dorchester's vibrant Upham's Corner neighborhood. This beautifully remodeled 2-bedroom, 2-bath condominium showcases carefully curated designer finishes, stunning custom tilework, and rich hardwood floors that bring warmth and character throughout. Over 9-foot ceilings, oversized windows, and recessed lighting create a bright, airy atmosphere that complements the home's sophisticated aesthetic. Enjoy the convenience of in-unit laundry and a thoughtfully designed layout that balances comfort and functionality. Outside, a private paver patio provides the perfect setting for relaxing or entertaining, while one garage parking space and an additional off-street parking space offer a rare level of convenience for city living. What truly sets this residence apart is the exceptional basement expansion potential, offering the opportunity to nearly double the living footprint with an additional en-suite bedroom and generous living or entertaining space, subject to necessary approvals. A compelling combination of sophisticated design, private outdoor space, coveted parking, and future potential, all within one of Dorchester's evolving neighborhoods.
