Nestled in Mid-Cambridge, this utterly delightful tree-top home is a welcome retreat on a quiet street, just blocks from the sparkle of Central Square. The unit spans the top two floors of an elegant Second Empire building, with the living areas and a half bath on one level, and two equal-sized bedrooms and a full bath upstairs. A stylish, contemporary kitchen features custom cabinets, honed quartz countertops, a mid-century glass tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances, and offers ample storage via cabinets on both sides of the peninsula along with a wall of pantry closets. The kitchen is open to the living and dining room, with exposed brick, hardwood floors, and a woodstove providing warmth and character. Glass doors lead to a generous private balcony. Off-street parking with an EV charger; laundry and a large storage room in the basement. Located between Harvard, Central, and Inman Squares, with access to public transit, restaurants, cafes, shops, groceries, and recreation.
