    What's special

    East Cambridge. In the shadows of the beautiful Sacred Heart Church, this semi-detached rowhouse offers almost unlimited opportunity for its next owner. Steps to Cambridge Courthouse and the adjacent Lechmere MBTA Greenline station, this charming property is just minutes from Boston, McGrath Highway, MIT, and Kendall Sq. The main house contains three bedrooms, including a sunny third floor hideaway with skylights and refinished wide pine floors. Meanwhile, there is an attached former convenience store (16' x 17') that affords incredible opportunity for conversion to a home office, gallery, artist loft, studio, etc. It is currently in need of some work, but it will be a showstopper with the right vision.

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
