Before Kendall Sq. was the biotech powerhouse it is today, East Cambridge was a place where neighbors stayed for decades....and that spirit still shines. Just 0.7 mi to Union Sq. & Lechmere T, 1 mi to Kendall, this rare, 3-lots combined property was reimagined in the 2000s with multi-generational living in mind. A fenced-in, hardscaped driveway holds 2 cars, plus an attached garage accommodates a third vehicle. Inside the owner’s unit there's so much to love ~ soaring ceilings, skylights, an updated kitchen with private deck, and a dreamy floor plan with1 bedroom on the street level and 3 bedrooms up. Out back, picture summer BBQs under the trellis, surrounded by years of labor in perennial gardens. Endless possibilities: craft a stunning single-family, convert to condominiums, or maybe live on one level while collecting rent the other? Ideal location to invest - just minutes to Donnelly Field, Kendall Square, MIT/Harvard, Longwood + the vibrant eateries & shops along Cambridge Street!
