About This Home
As of January 2021Tucked away in the middle of everything! This bright and crisp 2 bed, 1.5 bath condominium is sited at the quiet end of Thorndike Street, only 2 blocks to the shops and restaurants lining Cambridge Street, and just 5 blocks to the heart of Kendall Square. The 120 SF deck is a luxurious private space with views to Boston and New Year's Eve fireworks. Updates include hardwood floors and all new windows, offering clean lines and energy efficiency. Also: in-unit laundry, private storage, and bike storage, all in a well maintained and professionally managed building. Deeded garage parking seals the deal, allowing one to ditch the car and live a true urban lifestyle on bike or foot. Common areas include elevator, lobby, and atop 217 Thorndike, a large common roof deck - for when we do things together once again. Pet friendly. Close to MIT, Kendall Square, Inman Square, Harvard, the Red Line, I-93, Boston and more. Walk Score® of 92 - a “Walker’s Paradise”.
