About this property

The Hidden Gem of Cambridge No. 1

This is a first floor apartment with 2 bedrooms, 1.5 bathroom, with a well appointed kitchen and bathrooms on a quiet street in Cambridge. Central air and ceiling fans make for a comfortable apartment during hot summer months. You will feel like you are a local as all the neighbors are very friendly. This apartment will accommodate 4 people comfortably for a few nights, a full week or more. There are alot of great restaurants, shops, yoga studios, hair salon, spin studio and much more within walking distance of the apartment. street parking is available with the use of the visitor pass which will be provided for you. We are situated between Harvard and MIT making the location very convenient for those who will be visiting the Universities and very accessible to the subway for easy access to Boston. We are only a couple blocks from the Charles River which makes for a nice early morning walk/run or perhaps a stroll after a meal. Also located by the river are the Hubway rental bikes.

A cosy home stay while on a long holiday
Leigh has obviously taken the time to consider everything a guest could want or need while they’re staying away from home and it was all there for us on arrival. We especially appreciate the well equipped kitchen including the partly stocked pantry which made it easy to pick up and cook a few basic dishes. It was nice feeling part of a neighbourhood too.

Highly recommend
My family and I decided to plan a family get together in Boston/Cambridge. This property was perfect for us. The location was nice and quiet and very clean. The check-in process was a breeze. Leigh was very responsive to all our questions and replied immediately. We love to explore and this property was very walkable to Harvard, MIT, and even Fenway Park if you like to walk. I would not recommend a rental car unless you really need one. Parking could be a challenge in the neighborhood. The Red Line is near and Uber in and around Boston was very good.

Exactly What We needed
We were in town for our 16 year old daughter to tour colleges. We also had our twelve year old son with us. Having a room with two twin beds was great for the kids, and having the extra half bath was really helpful when we were all trying to get ready to go out. We were concerned that parking would be difficult, but it wasn't- we were always able to find a parking spot on the street.

Great Cambridge apartment
This was the perfect size for 2 people. Very clean, good amenities (bathrooms had fans!) and excellent location to reach Central Square and Harvard Square. Very convenient to the T as well.

This is a family home that my grandmother and grandfather bought back in the late 20's. We are very proud of the fact that we are 4 generations strong. I lived here for 15 years while studying and working. I just love this area and enjoy coming back every so often. We hope that you will enjoy the area as much as we do.
