About This Home
Top-floor, south-facing and flooded with natural light, this 3-bedroom flat crowns a 3-unit Victorian building in historic Mid-Cambridge near Maple Avenue and the Duffet Tot playground. With high ceilings, maple and fur floors, and two elegant bays, the home radiates warmth & space. The vintage kitchen was redesigned to welcome light through a large picture window, while a walk-in pantry off the rear bedroom offers a rare opportunity: convert it into a future ensuite bath. This classic layout blends charm and potential, inviting your creative vision. Enjoy a private deck, storage, and peaceful surroundings just moments from Harvard, the shops and restaurants of Inman Square, and Central Sq (0.8 mile) or Union Sq T stations (0.7 mile). Whether you're drawn to the architectural character, the sun-drenched interiors, or the promise of transformation, this top-floor condo offers a rare mix of serenity and possibility in one of Cambridge’s most coveted enclaves. Easy parking on street.
