One block from the Charles River and moments from Harvard University, this charming first-floor residence offers a rare combination of character, convenience, and outdoor space. A private entrance and parking at your doorstep provide the ease of single-family living, while access to a beautifully landscaped 3,000 sq. ft. garden creates a serene retreat for relaxing, entertaining, or enjoying the seasons. Inside, a sun-filled bistro-style kitchen features stainless steel appliances and striking black glass-front cabinetry. A gracious gallery hallway leads to a bay-windowed living room bathed in morning light, while high ceilings throughout enhance the sense of space. Two well-proportioned bedrooms, in-unit laundry, and dedicated basement storage add everyday practicality. Ideally located near the Charles River paths, Harvard Business School, Whole Foods, Harvard Square, Central Square, and the Red Line, this home places some of Cambridge's most beloved destinations just moments away.
