About this home

Tucked along a leafy, coveted street in Cambridgeport close to MIT, Harvard, Central Square and the Charles River, this beautifully renovated residence offers a rare balance: the quiet ease of home with the energy of the city just beyond your door. Renovated in 2019 and lightly lived in, the home unfolds across three inviting levels, with sunlight, thoughtful finishes, and effortless flow throughout. The main level is made for gathering, with an open living, dining, and kitchen space that spills directly onto a large private fenced yard and patio—ideal for dining al fresco, morning coffee, or letting the dog run free. A half bath and entry foyer complete this level. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite is filled with natural light and generous storage, accompanied by its own ensuite bath. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath await downstairs, offering flexibility for guests, work, or family. Off-street parking and in-unit laundry add everyday ease, while central air keeps things comfortable year-round. Moments from Harvard, MIT, Central Square, and the Charles River, the Red Line is close by and I-90 and Route 2 within easy reach. Walk to celebrated restaurants, wander beside the river, catch a show downtown, or head off for the weekend. This is Cambridge living without compromise.
