Property Description

Multiple exposures bring glorious light streaming into this second floor, corner unit in the original ‘Harlow Building’ on Linnaean Street. A recent renovation created a large open living, dining and kitchen area, anchored on one end by a decorative period fireplace and on the other by custom built bookcases framing a lovely cushioned reading bench. The Belgian bluestone entry floor transitions beautifully to the restored quarter-sawn oak flooring throughout the rest of the space. The kitchen features a large soapstone peninsula, stainless appliances and a hand-painted tile back splash. Through double French Doors in the living room is a large office or second bedroom with a wall of windows on one side and custom bookcase on another. The renovation of the bathroom includes exquisite European fixtures, a glass transom at the ceiling and a custom glass shower surround. If a prime location of a fabulously renovated 5 room condominium is what you have been looking for, your search is over!

Potential Assessment Information:

The Peabody Court Condominium Association is planning to begin exterior pointing and window work on the buildings in the spring of 2025. They have chosen a contractor and the estimate is $1,119,370. To pay for this the association board has said that their intention is to use reserve funds and to do some amount of an assessment so as to not deplete the reserve fund, the dollar amounts won’t be determined for quite some time. 
Based on this information, the seller has decided to market the unit $20,000 below the current fair market value in order that the potential of a special assessment be addressed up front. 
The units proportional share of the total estimate IF the project were to be paid totally by assessment would be ($1,119,370 x 1.475% =) $16,511.

Restrictions:

Smoking - In Common Areas

Exclusions:

Pendant lights over counter between kitchen and dining and living room chandelier.
