About this home

Whether you want to grab dinner in Arlington Center, enjoy coffee on a Saturday morning, bike to Spy Pond, or skip the car entirely with nearby bus lines and public transportation, this top floor condo pairs convenience with a surprising amount of private space. Gut renovated four years ago, the home feels bright, open, and easy to live in. The living room centers around a gas fireplace, while the dining area and kitchen create one connected space with generous countertop and cabinet storage. Two bedrooms and two full bathrooms offer flexibility for guests, work from home, or simply spreading out. Laundry in the unit and pull down attic storage keep daily life organized. Outside, the private patio and exclusive use yard create a rare extension of the home, with outdoor storage for the extras that usually end up in closets. A semi finished basement is perfect to start your next hobby or store bikes. Two car driveway parking completes a home designed for living locally and comfortably.
