About This Home

As of June 2021

This shabby-chic 1873 cottage is a dynamite opportunity to own a single family home in the heart of bustling and burgeoning East Cambridge, just 4 blocks from the thriving tech hub of Kendall/MIT. The south and east facing first floor is flooded with light and has a kitchen, dining room, living room and full bath; upstairs there are 2 bedrooms. The outdoor space offers great potential as an urban retreat, away from the bustle. Terrific unfinished basement has plenty of room for skis and bikes and maybe even a small makerspace. Ditch your car in the driveway, and enjoy the surrounding bounty of urban goodness, including world-class restaurants, 8+ parks and playgrounds, artisan coffee and the best breakfast sandwich in town. MGH/Beacon Hill are just across the historic Longfellow Bridge. Easy access to Red + Green Lines, MIT/Harvard, I-93. 14 minutes to Logan! With a Walk Score® of 97 + Bike Score® of 98 - 167 Spring is a “Walker's & Biker's Paradise" - the city is your oyster!
