Close to public transportation (.8 mile to Porter Square Redline and Commuter Rail), .9 mile to Harvard Square T, and 12 minutes to Boston. Ideally situated on quiet tree-lined street and conveniently located to Harvard, Porter, Davis, Union, and Inman Squares. Convenient to the many shops, restaurants, markets, and eateries.
