About This Home

Bring your ideas to this well-sited 2-family home in Lower Allston, one of Boston’s fastest moving neighborhoods. Just minutes from Harvard Square, Boston Landing, Mass Pike, Harvard Business School, shops, restaurants and public transportation! Each unit has its own entry and features an eat-in kitchen, spacious living room, 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom—complete with vibrant pink tilework! A rear stairwell leads to the private backyard and basement access, where you’ll find ample storage space, laundry, and mechanicals. Sold as-is, this home is in need of some TLC, but recent appliances, updated windows, and lovely features like exposed brick, wonderful natural light, and a delightful backyard oasis offer promising rewards for the next owner. Institutional development is leading this well-situated and convenient neighborhood into a new era, with hip new cafes and restaurants, vibrant new public spaces—and tremendous opportunity for savvy buyers!
