In Roxbury, a classic renewed
Roxbury’s Washington Park neighborhood is home to a vibrant, established community that is also in the midst of a rebirth of sorts. Unit B in the duplex-style home at 18 Laurel St. welcomes you into the heart of that community. The property, built in 1900, sits amid tree-lined, quiet streets with access to more green space and great parks.
Even more, the home’s proximity to the Longwood Medical Area, including many universities, and a quick hop on public transportation to the Silver Line from Dudley Station make it a commuter’s ideal space.
The well-maintained and inviting exterior features a roof and siding installed in 2012, as well as updated windows throughout, also updated in 2012. At slightly over 1,500 square feet of interior space, three bedrooms and two bathrooms on three floors, unit B has space to spare. Although, if you need more, there is even more storage space (and a laundry room) in the home’s basement level.
Sun-drenched formal living and dining rooms have high ceilings and hardwood floors. The bedrooms are large and comfortable, and the bathrooms are also recently updated with tile and modern fixtures and lighting. The kitchen, remodeled in 2012, is especially spacious, and has tile floors, newer appliances, and tons of cabinet and cooking space.
Offered at $469,900 with low HOA dues, moving in to 18 Laurel St. is a fantastic opportunity to buy in a historic area of Boston that is walkable, affordable and accessible. Buyers looking for an investment property will be pleased with the $3,700 monthly rental income.
The sale of the home is being handled by Mary Beiche at 781-632-2752.
