Incredible opportunity to live right in the heart of Bedford Center! This charming, sunny 2-bedroom unit sits on the top floor of the John Webber Simons House, circa 1827. Both bedrooms are on the front of the building & flooded with natural light. Pass through the newly updated kitchen with recessed lights, crisp white cabinetry, granite counters & stainless-steel appliances to cozy up in the living room at the rear of the unit, complete with new gas fireplace. From this comfortable space, access the porch and head down to the backyard and driveway, where you have two parking spaces. Brand new bathroom renovation, central air and walk-up attic for storage or workshop space truly make this Bedford’s best value. You could even finish the attic space for an office or bonus room. Short walk to the MBTA bus to Alewife, bike path, restaurants, shops, Whole Foods, public fields & more! HOA fee includes water/sewer plus hot water, master insurance & snow plowing (not shoveling). Pets allowed!
