Property Description

Yeah, technically it’s a condo — but not in any way that feels like one. No neighbors above. No one below. Just your own private entrance, four-sided exposure, and a spacious two-level layout that lives more like a single-family than 90% of what’s out there. 278 Princeton is the real deal. We're talking soaring first-floor ceilings, newly refinished actual hardwood floors (none of that big-box manufactured stuff), and windows on every side giving you maximum natural light. The kitchen? Sleek and modern with brand-new appliances. The baths? Updated and clean. The rest? New windows, fresh paint, new siding — all the hard stuff is done. And let’s talk location: 5 minutes to the life-changing birria tacos at Jalisco, 2 blocks to the lobster ravioli that Rino’s Place is famous, and under 10 minutes to the Blue Line. No car needed, but you’ve got street parking that's vastly more convenient than other locations. Skip the suburbs. Ditch the bidding wars. This is how you win in East Boston.
