About This Home

As of June 2020

Perched on the top floor of a quintessential Cambridgeport triple decker, this beautifully re-imagined 2-bedroom/1-bath condo is illuminated with natural light and features high ceilings, tree-top views, and a spacious and quiet rear deck. The new kitchen is outfitted with custom cabinets, quartz counters, stainless appliances, and a vented gas range. The ample peninsula seamlessly connects the chef's kitchen to the dining room. Additional amenities include a full sized (vented) washer/dryer, ample in-unit storage, and dedicated storage in the basement. Situated on Tufts Street, coveted for its wide and tree-lined appeal, this home is both centrally located and peacefully residential. Easy walk to Central Square, Kendall, MBTA Red and Green lines, MIT, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, and The Morse School. Commutes to Cambridge, BU, downtown and Greater Boston are a breeze via bus, subway, bike paths, Memorial Drive and Mass Pike. A run on the Charles River, and parks are just steps away.
