About This Home

As of July 2020

An ideal spot to live the car-free life. This warm & welcoming 2 bed condo is situated between Harvard & Inman Squares, making it a quick jaunt to many of Cambridge's historic landmarks. Turn left out of the front door and soon find yourself surrounded by the rich cultural life in and around Harvard; turn right and head toward the hip, vibrant energy and culinary joys of Inman Square, just a few blocks away. This home is classic Cambridge, w/ high ceilings & warm hardwood floors. The many large windows and skylights bring in plentiful light. The updated eat-in kitchen, w/ stainless steel appliances, maple cabinets and a tiled backsplash, spills through french doors to a back porch oasis, surrounded by lush greenery that belies the urban excitement of this location. Clever use of the 865 square feet provides for an additional room ideal as a study or playroom, as well as in-unit laundry. Also convenient to MIT, Cambridge Hospital, MBTA bus lines, and the gorgeous Cambridge Main Library.
