About this home

A dream location for investors, developers, or end-users. Perfectly positioned adjacent to Central Square, Kendall Square and MIT in the vibrant Port neighborhood, this attached two-family presents a rare opportunity to secure strong income today with long-term upside in one of the city’s most coveted corridors. Conveniently tucked away on a private way, this multi-family offers approximately 3,642 square feet across two units, featuring a total of 7 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The property currently generates impressive rental income of $4,000 per month for one unit and $4,600 per month for the other — delivering $103,200 in annual gross income from day one. Filled with natural light and brimming with potential, the layout provides flexibility for continued investment, strategic renovation, condo conversion, or owner-occupancy with substantial rental offset. In a market where well-located multi-families are tightly held, this is a smart acquisition with multiple development options.
