About this home

There is a certain kind of home where you can feel the hand of its maker. At 118 Pearl Street, a thoughtful, unexpected duplex condominium guided by both an artist’s eye and a builder’s understanding. Renovated from the studs, the home features high ceilings, central air, heated floors, and beautifully integrated built-ins that create flow and function. The 2024 kitchen pairs design and utility with Bosch appliances, a Ruvati workstation sink, glass-front cabinetry, and an exceptional pantry. A private entry leads to a flexible main level with living, dining, study, and full bath. Upstairs, two bedrooms sit beneath the mansard roof alongside a spa-like bath with skylights, soaking tub, and separate shower, plus laundry. Full unfinished basement with high ceilings. Set at the corner of Pearl and Lopez, with great light, a small garden, and easy access to Central Square, Harvard Square, markets, parks, and the Charles River.
