About this home
Set within a classic Harlow building in the Radcliffe neighborhood, this southeast-facing two-bedroom condominium is filled with beautiful natural light. Thoughtfully updated, it offers 808 sf of well-proportioned living space, with large windows, pretty floors, detailed moldings & a fireplace that anchors the living area. A gracious entry provides a place to arrive and settle, and generous closet space adds everyday ease. Life here unfolds in a rhythm that is distinctly Cambridge: morning coffee on Massachusetts Avenue, afternoons in the Radcliffe Quad, evenings between home and Harvard Square. Encircled by the University, yet grounded in a neighborhood known for its beauty and ease, it is a setting that feels both connected and contained In one direction, Massachusetts Avenue hums with cafés and bookstores; in the other, the Quad offers open green space where neighbors gather, and dogs run. A place where daily routines settle in, and where Cambridge living feels quietly refined.
