About this home

Somerville has topped “must-live” lists for decades, and Pearson Ave places you right in the center of it all. Located just steps from Ball Square’s eclectic restaurants, shops, iconic Lyndell’s Bakery, and the Green Line Station, you’re just 14 minutes to Downtown Boston. Davis Square is less than ¾ mile away, and the Minuteman Bike Path sits just ½ mile from your door. Leave the car—live your life.This classic Philadelphia-style 2-family blends turn-of-the-century charm—hardwood floors, original moldings, and high ceilings—with thoughtful updates throughout. The layout offers flexibility for a variety of buyers: owner-occupants looking to offset their mortgage with rental income, multi-generational households seeking space and separation, or investors securing a prime 02144 asset in a location with consistent demand.Front and rear porches, off-street parking, and outdoor space allow you to enjoy both your home and your neighborhood.
