Apartment Description

If you've ever dreamed of living in a converted church, look no further than 17 Bow St in Somerville's Union Square! This unique property showcases vestiges of its former usage in the form of stained glass windows, exposed brick, high ceilings,... vaulted archways, braced ceilings, and unique wood features. The building has been fully converted into modern apartments, and you'll enjoy an updated kitchen and bathroom, hardwood floors, ceiling fans, dishwasher, and laundry in building. The location, right in the heart of Union Square, is ideal for anyone who enjoys the hustle and bustle of urban living. You'll be just steps away from Bow Market, home to a diverse mix of shopping and dining establishments, and surrounded on all sides by nightlife, restaurants, entertainment, and more. Check out Backbar for creative cocktails, Celeste for Peruvian specialties, or The Neighborhood for award-winning Portuguese brunch - all within a couple blocks! There's never a dull moment in Union Square. Market Basket is just a short walk away for all your grocery needs, and the Green Line is accessible at Union Square Station, making commuting throughout the city a breeze. For those with vehicles, outdoor parking is available for rent. Don't miss out on the opportunity to call this one-of-a-kind building your new home - contact us to set up a tour!
