1 Bedroom, in a 3 Bed 2 Bath, Close to Law School and Main Campus

Welcome to a beautifully remodeled, sun-filled condominium offering 1,477 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space in a quiet, well-maintained building.

The unit has been fully updated and features an open, airy layout with generous room...
sizes, ample closet space, and quality finishes throughout. The kitchen is fully equipped with modern appliances including a dishwasher and kitchenaid, making everyday living easy and comfortable. An in-unit washer and dryer means no more trips to a laundromat or shared basement facility.

The living room features a cozy gas fireplace — an inviting centerpiece that makes the shared common space especially warm and welcoming during Cambridge's long New England winters. Whether you're unwinding after a long day, hosting a low-key gathering, or simply curling up with a book, it's a feature that genuinely elevates everyday living.

Residents also enjoy access to a shared outdoor patio space, used cooperatively among just four units in the building. It's an ideal spot for morning coffee, an evening wind-down, or casual socializing with friendly neighbors in a semi-private setting.

The Available Room
The available bedroom is a private, well-proportioned room with good natural light and a huge walk-in closet. It is move-in ready and waiting for the right person to make it their own. Exact room details and photos available upon request or at showing.

Your Future Roommates
You'd be joining two established, considerate, and professionally engaged roommates:

One Harvard affiliate — a current Harvard staff member who values a clean, respectful, and low-drama home environment
One MIT affiliate — who keeps similar hours and shares a commitment to keeping common spaces tidy and enjoyable

We are a household of two women and are ideally looking to welcome one additional woman to complete our three-person home. We are friendly and happy to share common spaces, but we also respect each other's privacy, busy schedules, and need for quiet. We enjoy the apartment feeling like a real home — not just a place to crash.

We are looking for someone who is responsible, respectful of shared spaces, clean, and communicative — whether you're a graduate student, postdoctoral fellow, researcher, staff member affiliated with Harvard, MIT, or another institution, or young professional.

Location & Commute
This apartment is exceptionally well-situated for anyone working or studying across Cambridge's academic corridor:

🚇 7-minute walk to Porter Square MBTA Station (Red Line) — giving you fast, direct access to Harvard Square, Central Square, Kendall/MIT, Charles/MGH, and beyond
⚖️ ~20-minute walk to Harvard Law School
✝️ ~17-minute walk to Harvard Divinity School
🔬 ~17-minute walk to Harvard's Northwest Labs (Science and Engineering Complex)

Walkable to the shops, restaurants, cafés, and amenities of both Porter Square and Davis Square
Whether you're commuting by foot, bike, or the Red Line, this location puts you in the heart of it all without the noise and congestion of living directly in Harvard Square.
