This is a nicely-renovated, de-leaded, 3-bedroom apartment, with a private deck, and a beautiful garden shared with one other unit. Available September 1, 2026. No fee. Free off-street parking. Brokers please do not contact me except to request showings for specific clients. I am not looking for assistance. If you are interested, please begin by sending me the full names, professions, and direct email addresses of all who would live in the place. I won't respond to inquiries that don't provide that information. New rear decks built in the fall of 2025 -- see photos. Your deck is upstairs in a beautiful quiet garden. It has room for lots of seating and a table or two. The bathroom is enormous, and has a washer-dryer inside. Full kitchen with dishwasher. Outdoor bike shed, lockable. The location is near the intersection of Western Ave. and Howard St., on a quiet street. It is midway between the Charles river and Cambridge's Central Square (City Hall, etc.). Prime location, walking distance to Harvard College, Harvard Business School, and MIT. To MGH, it is 2.3 miles, and 2.6 miles to the Longwood Medical Area. It is about a seven minute walk to the Red Line train station at Central Square. Whole Foods is a five minute walk. Very close to lots of pubs and nice restaurants, shopping, and everything else. All three bedrooms have really nice bay windows. The front bedroom is enormous and has an office inside. The middle bedroom is also enormous. The rear bedroom is average size (please see floor plan), accommodates a queen bed and a small desk, and has an "open concept" closet, designed by a former tenant who was an architect. The apartment has excellent central air conditioning. You have your own private outdoor deck on the second floor, but the backyard, and the 3-car driveway, are shared with the first-floor unit. I actively maintain the garden, and there are lots of nice plants and a nice lawn. The first-floor tenants are a nice professional couple, and I'm committed to finding quiet, respectful people for the unit above them. No smoking, no pets. Please look at the pictures, including the floor plans, before reaching out. This place was built to give the most space to the bedrooms. The kitchen is unusually large for a Cambridge rental, but the living room is on the small size. As you can see from the pictures, the living room accommodates a full-size sofa, end tables, and a couple easy chairs, but you won't be having Macarena parties. Due at signing is first month's rent, last month's rent, and security deposit, totaling $14,700. Tenants pay all utilities. Sufficient income and a good credit score required, but if you're a student or young professional and don't have that, you can have a guarantor on the lease. Tenant pays all utilities.
