About this home
**The closest house to Boston University on Ashford Street!** This exceptionally well-located investment property has delivered 0% vacancy since its purchase more than 15 years ago, demonstrating the strength and consistency of the BU student rental market. Approximately 4,000 SF of living space plus a ** fully finished basement **, the property offers an updated, investor-friendly layout with modern kitchens and bathrooms and an open-concept kitchen/living area that continues to appeal to the highly sought-after student rental demographic. Just seconds from BU and within approximately 200 yards of restaurants, supermarkets, nightlife, and everyday conveniences, the location supports strong annual rental demand with the highly desirable September 1st leasing cycle. With the Rail Line redevelopment behind Pratt Street underway, this already premier location is positioned to benefit from continued investment and increased demand in the surrounding area. A compelling opportunity for investors seeking a proven rental property in one of Boston's most consistently desirable student housing markets.
