A lovely courtyard location sets the tone for this front-to-back 2-bedroom Condo with 2-car deeded parking, generous natural light, comfortable living space, & a host of fine features, including a BRAND NEW heating & A/C system as well as a BRAND NEW bath tub & shower. The freshly painted living room/dining room combo, highlighted by a large picture window, provides ample space for multiple configurations, while the adjacent galley kitchen offers generous cabinetry & gas cooking. The efficient layout works equally well for everyday living & hosting guests. Both bedrooms boast character-rich parquet floors, with one bedroom complemented by a full wall of custom-built bookshelves: ideal for collections, artwork & display. Excellent closet space throughout, plus front & rear unit access. Add to the list: that 2-car deeded parking, including one space directly outside the rear entrance, ample guest parking, plus laundry & additional storage conveniently located in the neighboring building.The serene grounds feature an inviting in-ground pool, along with idyllic surroundings perfect for relaxing or taking a leisurely stroll. A superb Condo in a setting that feels worlds away, yet places the best of Brighton, Newton & Boston incredibly near. An exceptional combination of location, convenience & comfortable living & a truly special place to call “home.”
