About this home
Blocks from Kendall Square, this rare free standing workers cottage offers a private oasis in the middle of the city. Oriented for beautiful southern light, the home looks out toward Elm and Hampshire plaza park and neighboring gardens, creating an unexpected sense of calm and greenery.

The open main level is designed for easy living and entertaining, with generous living and dining areas, a beautifully appointed kitchen, oversized island, premium appliances, restaurant grade range, and powerful hood. Glass doors open to a covered deck and exclusive landscaped yard with irrigation. Upstairs are two en suite bedrooms, including a primary suite with walk in closet.
