About this home

Gut-renovated 2-bedroom plus office/nursery townhouse on a quiet West Cambridge street close to Harvard Square. With two levels of living space, this home offers more room to spread out than many Cambridge rentals in this price range. Bright and fresh throughout, with refinished hardwood floors, a new kitchen and appliances, new windows and lighting, central A/C, tankless hot water and in-unit laundry. The separate office is ideal for working from home, and the private patio gives you your own outdoor space for morning coffee, dinner or relaxing at the end of the day. Additional basement storage is included. Close to Harvard Square, Mount Auburn Hospital, Memorial Drive and the Charles River, with restaurants, cafés, shops and public transportation nearby. A great fit for professionals looking for more space, a home office, outdoor space and the convenience of a fully renovated home. Small pets considered.
