Tucked away at the end of a cul de sac sits a uniquely extraordinary single-family townhouse that was fully updated a few years ago. A thoughtfully redesigned modern kitchen connects seamlessly to the dining and living room all bathed with southern sunlight. Along with an updated bathroom, the first floor was reimagined, turning the attached garage into a hybrid space used as an office and family room. The garage door is still functional so it can be used for parking again. A hallmark of this end-unit corner lot is its wonderful outdoor space with a huge 20x17 deck, grassy area, shed and plenty of room for a home garden taking advantage of that sunny exposure. Other stand-outs include newer HVAC, and windows. Sited equidistant to both Porter and Davis Squares, this location is minutes to the Red Line and commuter trains, and acclaimed restaurants. If you are looking for a renovated, move-in ready home, in a great location with all the features of a single family at the price of a condo—this is a must see!
