Terrific location for this new conversion in an 8-unit brick building in the Hancock Street neighborhood overlooking Cooper Park. Only 1 block from Mass. Avenue and close to all amenities and Harvard/Central T stops. Pet AND car friendly - your car will have a deeded home. Great for first time buyers, students, or the investor!
