Description

Hello! We are looking for a quiet individual or couple to rent our sunny, south-facing, energy-efficient, 2nd floor apartment that seamlessly blends old world charm with modern convenience. Set on a quiet, tree-lined street, this beautifully restored Victorian home is located in the historic Cambridgeport neighborhood - steps away from Central Square shops, restaurants and businesses (5-minute walk to Central Square, 15-minute walk to Kendall / MIT / Harvard, 5-minute walk to the Charles River / Memorial Drive). This 1 bedroom, 1 bath, furnished apartment has beautiful hardwood pine floors with an open kitchen and modern bath with luxe marble flooring. Water, sewer and winter snow removal are included in rent. Gas / electricity / WiFi are to be paid by tenant. Street parking is available with a Cambridge city permit. The Unit has been very well-maintained by the owner-couple: former senior govt. administrator / Columbia University alumna, and professor / MIT-EECS Ph.D. alumnus. Bedroom has a floor to ceiling closet with plenty of storage space and built-in closet organizers. Spacious, modern, open kitchen-dining-living area with ample cabinet storage, gas range with industrial vent. Secure outdoor bike storage area is available on the property. W+D units are located in the basement. Apartment will come furnished (including TV + media center, living room sofa set, queen-size bed and mattress, electronic-operated sit/stand desk + chair, etc.) – details to be shared during showings. Owners are looking to rent the entire apartment with a lease starting September 1, 2027. The total monthly rent for the apartment is $3000. Longer term leases -- for instance, covering the duration of an academic program or post-doctoral appointment -- will be favorably considered. In-person property showings are available with prior-scheduling. **The apartment is currently leased with a scientist working for a MIT alum-founded, research company in Cambridge, MA** Good luck with your search!
