About this home

Dramatic architecture, proximity to Harvard and Central Squares, solid owner-occupancy, professional management, and elevator service leading to an underground garage--no wonder turnover at 321 Harvard Street is so rare! Built in 1980 and incorporating the stone bell tower of an historic church, the building holds 30 condominiums on five floors. Unit 309 is a bright and modern space with a large bedroom, living room, one full and one half bath, galley kitchen with granite countertops, in-unit laundry, and its own private balcony. Hot-water radiator heat, central air-conditioning, and sunny southern exposure. There is assigned extra storage in the basement and a deeded parking space in the garage. The vibrant restaurants, shops, and culture of Cambridge are nearby, and Red Line T service is about a half-mile away in either direction. This is city living at its no-fuss best!
