About this home
This lovely 2 bedroom + study condo is newly painted, sparkling clean and move-in-ready! An off-street deeded parking space, extra storage, and in-unit laundry are all included. The home is full of preserved character with warm wood accents and beautiful hardwood floors. The living room features elegant french doors and a piano window to help capture abundant sunlight. Dinner party guests are well accommodated in the semi-formal dining room, complete with a charming built-in cabinet. This flows nicely into the spacious and inviting kitchen with high-end gas cooking range. In addition to the two well proportioned bedrooms, the bright study offers an ideal space to work from home. The private rear deck provides wonderful sunset views. The roof was just replaced last year with durable and reflective PVC material, lowering utility costs. In addition to your own off-street parking, an on-street parking space directly in front of the building is reserved exclusively for EV charging which provides additional income for the association. Fantastic location right next to the Arnold Arboretum where you can spend weekends enjoying hundreds of acres of green space, thoughtfully curated by Harvard University. Roslindale Village is among Boston’s coolest and most vibrant retail districts with numerous dining options and unique shops. Being directly between Roslindale Village and the Forest Hills Orange Line T Station gives you quick access to everything. The extensive Roslindale Farmer's Market is also a must-visit. Bluebikes nearby are accompanied by bike lanes. Easy access to Longwood Medical, Faulkner Hospital & more! Note: A virtual tour is available and posted on MLS.

Lower Washington-Mount Hope, located between Forest Hills and Roslindale Village, is a residential and commercial Boston neighborhood with hillside streets and a commuter-rail edge. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Washington Street near Ukraine Way, where corner markets, takeout counters, and small storefronts line the sidewalk under steady foot traffic. Forest Hills Station and the Southwest Corridor Park set a transit-and-trail rhythm along the eastern side. Triple-deckers and compact multifamily homes mix with newer apartment buildings along the main corridor. Arnold Arboretum’s paths and specimen trees shape the outdoor backdrop. Local pillars include The Square Root, Brassica Kitchen + Cafe, and the Arnold Arboretum Visitor Center.
