About this home

Amazing opportunity to live in a beautifully refreshed 3-bedroom top-floor condo in the heart of Huron Village. Recently updated with fresh paint throughout and newly buffed and coated hardwood floors, this approximately 1,100sqft home feels bright, clean, and move-in ready while still offering the warmth and charm of a classic Cambridge property. The layout is spacious and flexible, with generous room sizes, an updated kitchen, in-unit washer and dryer, and plenty of space for everyday living, working from home, or entertaining. From the main living areas, the home opens to a private rear porch overlooking the backyard, creating a peaceful place to enjoy fresh air and unwind. Because the condo occupies the top floor, it benefits from added privacy, abundant natural light, and a quiet residential feel. That sense of calm is matched by an especially convenient location, with Huron Village shops and restaurants, public transportation, neighborhood schools, Fresh Pond Reservoir, and miles of walking and biking paths all within easy reach. With excellent access to Cambridge and the surrounding area, this home offers a rare combination of fresh updates, space, comfort, and neighborhood charm.
