Nestled in the heart of Cambridge, this well-located unit is just steps from Harvard, MIT and the Red Line. Walkable to all the Mass Ave has to offer between Harvard and Kendall Squares. The elegant courtyard entrance with its beautiful, tranquil landscaping makes this complex stand out! The condo itself features a King size bedroom with great built in closets. A large spacious living room with hardwood floors throughout. An eat-in kitchen with Corian counters, ceramic tile flooring, tile backsplash, and crisp white cabinets. Modern subway tile white bath. There is a large storage room in the basement and common laundry in the building. This is a "Classic 1920's" charming complex. Why rent when you can buy; similar units rent for 3000.00 per month. Some photos are staged.
