I have said this so many times in the past year, I feel like a broken record: I believe Union Square is the best real estate investment opportunity in all of Cambridgeville right now. And I’m not just saying that because of the three amazing condos I will soon be listing at 11 Church Street (located at the star on the map above).
Property values have already started to rise with the recent influx of new shops and eateries, and in anticipation of the coming Green Line station (latest timing I’ve heard is that the Union Square stop should be complete and operational by 2017 – and that was from Mayor Curtatone himself). But you still can get a lot of bang for your buck here, and not only that, it’s a great place to live: super vibrant and with a great community feel, this is a place to call home. And even now, BGL (before Green Line), Union has great access to pretty much anywhere you want to go, whether by car, foot, bike, or public transportation.
Take a visual tour of Union Square on Pinterest:
Just a few of the many great places in Union:
Artisan’s Asylum — a “community craft studio” offering space and equipment rentals, classes, and events
Be Yoga — housed above Bloc 11, Be offers Vinyasa yoga for all levels
Bloc 11 Café — great coffee shop housed in a former bank, with wifi, art exhibits and frequent live music and events
Capone Foods — get your fresh pasta, cheeses and specialty items here. You can even take cooking classes!
The Independent — a great casual neighborhood restaurant and pub
Journeyman — a food lover’s delight with a rotating menu of seasonal dishes and a super-stealth cocktail bar: backbar
Market Basket — people drive for miles for this grocery store’s fresh produce and super low prices
Precinct — sit outdoors or in at this restaurant-bar-nightclub located in the former home of the Somerville PD
Prospect Hill Park — a tranquil park with great views of the Boston skyline
Ricky’s Flower Market — has a fantastic selection of flowers, plants and herbs
Saturday Farmer’s Market — fresh fruit, vegetables, breads, local jewelry and craft vendors, plus entertainment!
And coming soon:
Brooklyn Boulders — read more about this rock climbing gym/multi-functional community space in my recent post
