About this home

Just blocks from the heart of Kendall Square, this rare free-standing workers cottage offers a refined retreat tucked. Perfectly positioned for beautiful southern light, the home overlooks Elm & Hampshire plaza-park and neighboring gardens, creating a private urban oasis. Rebuilt in 2018 while preserving the original shell, it features acacia hardwood floors, closed-cell foam insulation, hardwired smoke/CO detectors and a full sprinkler system. The open main level is ideal for entertaining with spacious living and dining areas, a stunning kitchen, oversized island, premium appliances, restaurant-grade range and powerful hood. Sliders lead to a covered deck and exclusive landscaped yard with irrigation. Upstairs offers two en-suite bedrooms, including a primary suite with walk-in closet. The finished lower level includes a media room, storage, laundry and half bath plumbed for a shower. Deeded parking completes this exceptional offering.
