About this home

Live in one of Greater Boston’s most dynamic neighborhoods. This bright two-bedroom, one-bath apartment sits right between Kendall Square and Inman Square. You’re a short distance from MIT, the Kendall biotech and tech campuses, and some of Cambridge’s best restaurants and nightlife.Inside, the large living room gives you real space to spread out. It has classic Victorian door and window trim and gleaming hardwood floors. Hardwood continues through both bedrooms, and each has good natural light. The eat-in kitchen has vinyl tile flooring, plenty of white cabinetry, a gas range, and room for a dining table. The full bathroom finishes out the unit.The location is the real standout. In Kendall Square you’ll find the Landmark Kendall Square Cinema, the hidden rooftop garden on Main Street, seasonal ice skating and kayaking on Broad Canal, and favorite spots like State Park, Cambridge Brewing Company, Mamaleh’s, and Commonwealth. Inman Square’s cafes and restaurants are just up the street, and CambridgeSide shopping and Lechmere are nearby. The Red Line at Kendall/MIT and the Green Line at Lechmere are both within walking distance, so getting into Boston is easy. You also have quick access to Memorial Drive and the Longfellow Bridge.
