About This Home

As of December 2024

Welcome to the perfect Cambridge pied-à-terre! On the garden level of the professionally managed Porter Square Condominium complex, this comfortable studio unit features an efficient kitchen, a full bath, and plenty of room to live, sleep, and work. Laundry on premises. The location can't be beat: Arlington Street is a lovely, tree-lined way lined with stately homes and classic pre-war brick buildings, and the independent shops and restaurants of along Massachusetts Avenue are just around the corner, with the Red Line and all the resources of Porter Square Shopping nearby. Ideal for an investor, someone looking for an in-town refuge, or anyone associated with Harvard or Lesley Universities.
