Description

The Diamond Condominiums at Independence Hall appeal to home buyers seeking an historic locale with impressive Boston ambiance. Visit this location in downtown Chelsea in Suffolk County to savor the milieu of a busy, urban landscape. This development offers some distinctive architectural features in a one-of-a-kind spot!

Developers renovated a structure built on the site where the city's large Independence Hall once stood. They created a series of loft apartments and townhomes which became condominiums during the 1990s. Portions of the refurbished building date from 1900.

Today, visitors discover a truly unique red brick condominium complex spanning a series of attached three story mid-rise buildings located between 157 and 165 Winnisimmet Street. The exterior of the portion accessed through the 165 street address connects with another adjoining mid-rise along the same street to create a brownstone-like milieu. A commercial-style rubber roof covers the building, which abuts the juncture of Winnisimmet Street, Park Street and 2nd Street.

This structure maintains a distinctive character. Its unusual dimensions and attractive deep green trim contribute to this impression. Some units in the 157 portion of the building offer incredible views of a fountain in a Belingham Square park across the 2nd Street intersection. Lovely mature trees and picturesque Victorian-style lamp posts line the sidewalk outside this address. Winnisimmet Park lies just across the street from a portion of the development, providing ready access to public transit and ridesharing services.

Condo Units With Awesome Hard Wood Flooring

Some units in 165 Winnisimmet include 3 bedroom and 1.5 bath condos. The development also includes a number of single bedroom and single bath units in 157 Winnisimmet. Most (and perhaps all) of the condos here rely on popular two story townhome-style floor plans. The single bedroom units include some converted lofts with stylish beamed ceilings.

Prospective home buyers will likely notice the stunning wood flooring in the Diamond Condominiums. Today, many people prize this feature. With open, spacious windows these units showcase the beauty of their renovations. Most include updated, modern kitchens and extensive built-in storage.

Homeowners association fees sometimes change over the course of time. During recent years, the HOA for most units here has reportedly hovered in the mid-$300 per month range. The condo association covers exterior building maintenance, trash collection, snow removal, water, and sewer, and possibly other items.

The Neighborhood

Prospective home seekers notice a supremely urban environment surrounding this locale. If you've searched for a residence situated close to essential services and amenities, you'll want to give the Diamond Condominiums closer attention! Proceeding further along Winnisimmet Street, you'll find a variety of retail shops and businesses at the ground level of the buildings, with residential properties overhead.

The condos sit just 0.2 miles away from a preschool and Kindergarten located on Hawthorne Street. The Eugene Wright Science & Technology Academy serving middle school-age children also stands within walking distance, only 0.3 miles away on Walnut Street. Chelsea High School and several public elementary schools maintain campuses within a two mile radius of this site.

Condo residents easily reach restaurants, grocery stores, medical services, laundry facilities, and numerous entertainment and employment opportunities within the immediate area. Highway 1 transects Chelsea, and residents can obtain nearby highway access. A public beach lies within two miles of this location, too. Home values in this development have appreciated here during recent years, according to online sources.
