About this home

Perched up in the tree-tops, this bright and airy 3 bed penthouse condo is a must see! A beautiful setting for outdoor lovers, the home sits on a larger lot that is set back from the street with plenty of front and back yard space that is fenced in, and perfect for gardening, cookouts and parties, and also offers flowering pear, peach and apple trees. Those that love to cook will appreciate the oversized granite/stainless kitchen with plenty of counter-space and seating for 4-5 stools. The spacious living has plenty of natural light from its bay windows. The bathroom has recently been remodeled. Plus, off street parking, hardwood floors, basement storage and laundry. Freshly painted, floors refinished and a newer roof! Condo association is 100% owner occupied and the building is well maintained and pet-friendly. Quick commute to area hospitals/Longwood. Walk to Whole Foods, Centre St shops, restaurants, the Green & Orange line trains and all that Jamaica Plain has to offer.
