About This Property

The owners of this new-construction house care deeply about the environment so when it was time to build they erected the first Certified Passive House in Cambridge. This dog-friendly 2-bedroom, 2-bath unit is the first floor of a triple decker and features an open plan living room/dining room, leading to a kitchen with bar seating, Corian countertops, stainless steel, energy-efficient appliances, including an induction range. With high ceilings and huge windows all around, the unit is flooded with light. It has plenty of closet space plus private storage in the basement. The in-unit laundry, bike rack, and easy on-street parking are a plus, as is plug-in for EV. Amazing location, with easy access to the Central Square MBTA station, Harvard and Kendall Squares, MIT, BU, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, H-Mart, and the many great restaurants and shops in Central Square. Close to the Charles River, where you can bike, walk, or sunbathe. Tenant pays agency fee of one month's rent.
