Welcome to this sun-filled, income-restricted condominium in the heart of Roxbury's Fountain Hill Square. Set within a handsome brick townhouse-style building on a tree-lined corner lot, this legal three-bedroom, one-and-one-half-bath home offers 1,085 square feet across two well-proportioned levels.Step through your private entry into a bright, tiled foyer with a convenient in-unit washer and dryer closet. The kitchen features warm maple cabinetry, a tiled mosaic backsplash, dark countertops, and a full suite of black appliances, including a French-door refrigerator, electric range, and stainless dishwasher. It opens to a spacious dining and living area with a ceiling fan and sliding glass doors leading to a private deck, ideal for morning coffee or evening unwinding.Bedrooms are finished with warm hardwood flooring, ceiling fans, and generous closet storage. One bedroom currently spans two combined rooms, offering flexible space for a home office, nursery, or guest suite, and can be restored to its original three-bedroom configuration. A charming bay window brightens another bedroom, filling the room with natural light and built-in shelving.This home is subject to a Covenant for Affordable Housing recorded with the Boston Planning & Development Agency (BPDA). Eligible buyers must meet published household income and asset limits and intend to occupy the property as their primary residence. Resale price is capped in accordance with the Covenant's formula. Buyers are encouraged to review all program documentation and confirm current eligibility requirements with the BPDA.Ideally located near Roxbury and Dorchester's vibrant communities, with easy access to public transportation, parks, and everyday conveniences, this is a rare opportunity to build lasting equity in a home designed with real families in mind."Disclosure: This home is legally classified as a 3-bedroom. The current owner removed a wall to create one massive, oversized bedroom, so it currently functions as a 2-bedroom layout. For buyers needing that extra space, the wall can easily be put right back up to restore the original 3-bedroom floor plan! Endless flexibility to suit your needs."
