Nestled in Cambridge’s Baldwin neighborhood, this oversized one-bedroom condominium sits in one of the city’s quieter, more residential pockets, ideally set on a one-way street. Located within a three-unit HOA, the home offers 8.5 ft ceilings, oak flooring, and a well-proportioned floor-through layout with an open, expansive living and dining room that feels both elegant and airy. The renovated kitchen is outfitted with updated cabinetry, countertops, gas cooking, a vented range hood, and a windowed pantry, along with in-unit laundry for added convenience. The bathroom has also been thoughtfully renovated with clean, modern finishes. At the rear, both the kitchen and generously sized bedroom overlook a lush, shared garden—an uncommon and enchanting backdrop that brings a sense of calm and privacy. A separate study adds flexibility without compromising the main living spaces. Just a short distance to Harvard and Porter Squares, with easy access to shops, cafés & transit along Mass Ave.
