About this home

.Situated pretty much on the Tufts campus, and within 2 blocks to the new MBTA Green line station, this crisp 5 bedroom 2.5 bath house is ready for its new family or investor owner! Hardwood floors throughout, central HVAC, large bathrooms and a huge backyard, this property has so much to offer! Plenty of closets and basement storage. Garage parking and ample driveway space are a solid bonus to the value here. Fresh interior paint, and partial exterior paint job, there is no heavy lifting needed for this turnkey home.This prime location gets one to downtown with ease via the Green Line or 93. Very close to Medford sq and 93 highway access. Bustling and exciting Davis Sq is a short jaunt from the front door (almost a straight shot!), providing nightlife, restaurants and theatre events. Homeowners or renters can also take advantage of the many cultural events and happenings provided by neighboring Tufts university.
