Buying a single family in Union Square
If you’re thinking of buying a single family close to Union Square, Somerville, generally I find the buckets to be fairly narrow. You typically have your smaller, tighter single families in the $1M to $1.4M range, these tend to be 1,000 to 1,500 square feet, oftentimes just 2 bed or 3 bed homes with relatively tight layouts. Most of these singles need some serious updating OR were updated a while ago OR were updated recently by a flipper on a budget.
Then you have the other bucket, which is typically $1.5M to low $2Ms. On the low end, you have nice turnkey single families that tend to be smaller, most typically smaller 3-bed start homes. On the high end you’ll have completely updated single families, often around 3,000 square feet or more. These can be a mix of complete gut renovations AND beautiful, historical victorian homes at the top of Prospect Hill. If you are looking for great historical homes with space and walkability to cool stuff, Prospect Hill is an excellent place to target!
