What's special

Tucked along a quiet one-way street just moments from Mass Ave, Unit 4 at 17 Gray St. offers a rare sense of calm in the heart of Cambridge. This oversized one-bedroom lives generously, with an easy flow for entertaining, abundant windows & high ceilings. The beautiful dining room features a built-in that adds warmth & function, and the kitchen opens easily into the main living spaces, creating a natural place to gather. The bath carries a sense of character with its clawfoot tub. Mini-split A/C & efficient systems, including a newer boiler, bring modern comfort complemented by freshly painted interiors & a mix of brand new & newly refinished floors. Outside, a shared native pollinator garden creates a lush, ever-changing backdrop. From here, life settles into an easy Cambridge rhythm: morning coffee along Mass Ave, afternoons wandering around the Quad, evenings in Harvard Sq. Just a few blocks from Bagelsaurus & Giulia, it’s a setting that feels both connected & quietly removed.
