About this home

Tucked away and surprisingly private, 31 Market St Unit B has been their secret escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life for the past 5 years. A three-bedroom townhouse, it has amazing light, high ceilings, garage parking, and an excellent top-floor bedroom with its own private deck. After moving in, they renovated the kitchen & bathrooms, updated closets, added a/c, and replaced the heating system, the decks & the exterior siding. In return, they got the welcoming & calm home they wanted, accented by their own personal touches. Set amidst the buzz and excitement of their rapidly evolving neighborhood, known to some as The Port, life near Kendall Sq. has been rich and fulfilling. At their fingertips are restaurants, craft breweries & coffee shops, an excellent nursery school, and a handful of parks to choose from. All in all, this compelling urban property strikes the perfect balance between the excitement & energy of the city and the peace & quiet of a home off the beaten path!
