The spacious bedroom comfortably accommodates a king-size bed and is complemented by a full bath with in-unit laundry. Additional highlights include new HVAC with central air conditioning, generous private basement storage, and access to a shared yard with grill. Ideally situated along Highland Avenue, the home places all of Somerville's restaurants, shops, cafés, parks, and public transportation all within easy reach. Rate buy down to qualified buyers.
