About This Home
Location, Location...You Know the Rest. Welcome to 89 Bow St., a commuter’s dream and a city lover’s launchpad. Perfectly positioned near Colette Bakery, Magoun Square in Somerville, a quick stroll to the new Green Line MBTA and just minutes from I-93—because who doesn’t appreciate choices? If Logan Airport calls your name, you’ll be there in a flash. Convenience isn’t just an option here; it’s a given. The heavy lifting has been done for you - newer kitchen, baths, paint and finished basement. But let’s talk about potential. This home offers more than just a stellar address—it delivers flexible margin for value. Whether you’re looking for single-family home convenience or you’re ready to maximize income by renting the upstairs as an Air BnB, converting it to a separate rental unit or in-law suite w/ separate entrance, the opportunity is here. Live in one, convert the upstairs or keep it all to yourself—the choice is yours. Urban convenience. Investment versatility. Property DELEADED.
