Fabulous Chestnut Street location, just steps from Charles Street. Don't be fooled, this unit is a gem!!!!!.And has had multiple offers!!! However, It must be occupied by the buyer for 365 days, the building does not allow dogs and it is cost prohibitive to install HVAC. Window AC is OK. Building has solid financials and good reserves. It is 100% owner occupied. Low condo fee includes HEAT.
