**Open House Sun., Aug. 23 from 12 - 1:30** Welcome to one of Somerville’s best opportunities to own instead of rent. This thoughtfully designed one-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath home offers modern finishes, low-maintenance living, and the rare luxury of an exclusive-use walk-out private patio. Crisp white cabinetry, solid-surface countertops, sleek LG appliances, and tile flooring create a bright, move-in-ready space. Perfect for first-time buyers or investors, this home delivers an affordable entry into one of Greater Boston’s most desirable markets. Step outside to your private patio for morning coffee or relaxing after work, and enjoy a location that abuts the future bike and pedestrian path, providing even greater connectivity and long-term value. Just minutes from Assembly Row, Union Square, the Green Line, restaurants, shopping, and downtown Boston, this is city living made simple.
