An iconic location! Bigelow Street is the Cambridge of your imagination: a small tree-lined street with grand Victorian homes nestled closely together, just two blocks from the urban goodness of Central Square's coffee shops, restaurants, and the Red Line T. This spacious one-bedroom + office condo is a quiet and delightful retreat from the nearby bustle. Situated on the first floor of this 1890 Mansard beauty, much of the historic charm is still intact, including soaring 11'+ ceilings, molding, hardwood floors and original wood-framed windows. The kitchen has been thoughtfully renovated and the semi-private deck is a sun-splashed retreat, perfect for kicking back with friends. In-unit laundry and private storage offer tremendous utility. The professionally managed condo association ensures the building remains in great shape. Errands are done in a flash, with Central Sq/Red Line, Whole Foods, hardware store, post office and city hall all within just three blocks! Near Harvard and MIT.
