About This Home
As of July 2022Just blocks away from the Charles River on a quiet tree-lined street is this charming and airy Cambridgeport flat. Features include well-kept hardwood flooring throughout, southward sun exposure, high ceilings, mini-split AC, and private outdoor space. The renovated eat-in kitchen has granite countertops, cherry cabinets, and SS appliances including a Bosch dishwasher and gas range. Abutting the kitchen is a cute office with garden views and direct access to an exclusive use deck and patio. The Victorian era details are abundant in the living room's decorative fireplace mantle w/ antique glass, picture moulding, and original spruce flooring. Though its a two-bedroom, it doubles as an expansive one-bedroom if the pocket doors are opened to create an open living/dining area. The primary bedroom is sizable with a large walk-in closet. Storage and private laundry in the basement. Nearby to MIT, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Central Sq, and Boston. Sorry, pets are nonnegotiable. Available 9/1!
