    What's special

    Cambridgeport 4 BR! VACANT and easy to view. On historic Cottage St, this charming Single (c.1855) has many period details, and awaits your creative renovation, a short walk to Harvard, Central, and Kendall Sqs. The generous floor plan has been very attractively opened: double parlor with high ceilings and tall windows; kitchen/dining area lending onto a large south-facing deck and fenced yard. Four good sized BR's and study upstairs. Skylit 3rd floor with cathedral ceilings was once 2 BR's, and has plumbing for another bath. A curbcut for driveway and 2 spaces is approved and scheduled by the City. In the right hands, this house could be a gem! Please see floor plans, photos, and VIDEO. Showings are one at a time; social distancing will be observed. We have gloves and masks if needed.
