About this home

Originally built in 1914 as a lumber factory building, this dramatic loft residence at 1 Aberdeen Way offers a rare blend of industrial character & everyday ease. Converted in 2005, the building’s soaring ceilings, oversized windows & exposed brick walls speak to its past, while modern touches like a/c, bamboo floors & an efficient kitchen bring comfort to daily life. Positioned on the top level, the home is filled with beautiful natural light, including from a skylight above the 2nd-level bedroom. Overlooking the Greenway, the setting offers easy access to Fresh Pond, Mt. Auburn Cemetery, the Collins Branch Library, grocery stores & nearby Cambridge favorites like Sofra. Tucked along a dead-end street off Aberdeen Ave, with its lovely green median, the location feels both connected & surprisingly tucked away. An efficient open floor plan packs a punch, while parking, elevator access, professional management, pet-friendly & beautifully maintained landscaping add comfort & convenience.
