There's even a dedicated office, ideal for remote work or hybrid schedules, plus an enclosed porch for your morning coffee or evening wind-down. Off-street parking and on-premises laundry round out the practical perks, and yes — your cat is welcome here too. Tucked just outside Davis Square, you're minutes from top-rated restaurants, coffee shops, and the Red Line, making this an ideal home base for anyone who wants space, character, and convenience all in one place.
