RARE AFFORDABLE DAVIS SQ... We're not kidding!!!! This romantic abode IS a walk to Davis Square in LESS than 10 minutes! This street has all the conveniences of living in Somerville....near Tufts, Ball Square & the Red Line T! GREAT Gambrel Colonial in fantastic condition with driveway and yes...even a yard. Eat in Kitchen with Carrera marble counter tops and stainless appliances. She's even got style...with a formal dining room and charming adjacent beamed ceiling living rm. Hardwood floors throughout. Two upstairs bedrooms with generous closet space. Modern bath w/ cathedral skylight ceiling. Really charming front sunporch and an exclusive private yard with the feel of a Zen garden, yet pretty maintenance free. IF this house doesn't win you over...and it will, then the icing on the cake is this QUIET neighborhood, on a tree lined street with St Clements a stone's throw away. Call it what you want...needle in a haystack?
