Tucked behind a white picket fence on a quiet Somerville side street, this turnkey second-floor condo offers the feel of a private home with its own entry and foyer. Thoughtful owner improvements are on full display, led by a beautifully renovated chefs kitchen with slate-gray Shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless apron-front sink, glass-tile backsplash, gas double-oven range, sunny dining area, walk-in pantry, and dedicated in-unit laundry. Period charm remains throughout with refinished hardwood floors, crown molding, custom built-ins, and a bay-windowed living room filled with natural light. Two comfortable bedrooms are complemented by a separate office/flex room with access to a private balcony, creating an ideal work-from-home setup. A refreshed full bath, generous closet space, expansive private basement storage, and shared fenced-in backyard add everyday convenience. Moments from Union Square dining, Bow Market, the Green Line, Inman Square, Kendall/MIT, and Cambridge
