Incredibly rare two-family offering just steps from Harvard Business School and the Charles River. Each unit features 2 bedrooms and 1 full bath, ideal for rental income or future condo conversion. With solid bones and a newer roof (2021), these units are rent-ready with room for cosmetic updates – offering tremendous upside for both investors and owner-occupants alike. Located in the heart of North Allston, one of Boston’s fastest-developing neighborhoods, this property is surrounded by new construction, tech and innovation hubs, and vibrant local amenities. Walk to the Harvard iLab, new life science campuses, Trader Joe’s, and easy public transit access. Utilities are separated and the dry basement offers ample storage. The generous backyard is partially fenced, as well. Whether you're looking to renovate and flip, generate strong rental cash flow, or hold long-term as the area continues to thrive, this is an exceptional opportunity in one of Boston’s most promising corridors!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
