About this property

Delightful 3-bedroom apt in Porter square - 1 stop from Harvard

Tucked away on a quiet private road just 8 minutes from Porter Square station, this home feels calm and connected at once. Step outside and you’ll find cafés, restaurants, and city life within minutes — yet inside, it’s a quiet and warm sanctuary among the trees.

This listing is new, but rest assured I'm an experienced VRBO Premier Host who has created memorable stays for my guests over many years.

**The Space**
The unit occupies the upper two floors of a classic Cambridge house. The main floor features an open kitchen, dining room, half bathroom and 2 separate living areas framed by leafy windows. The upper floor has three bedrooms (two king beds and one queen) and two full bathrooms.

It’s a peaceful, bright space — wide windows, mature trees, and the kind of space you don’t often find this close to everything.

**Guest access**
Guests have full access to the entire two-level unit with its own private entrance.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
This roomy 3 bedroom duplex apartment was perfect for our needs. It was beautifully appointed, equipped and decorated but entirely self-contained and private. You didn’t feel like you were in somebody else’s space (because you are not). Very convenient location in walking distance from terrific shops, restaurant and bars in Cambridge. Easy parking (for one car right outside plus a guest parking pass a bit further that we didn’t need). Very easy check in and friendly communicative host. Highly recommended.
