Convenience stores, restaurants and shops are a very short walk from the front door.

This house was even more lovely in-person than the listing could have possibly shown! The home is very unique with so many authentic details.John and Tina were quick with responses and answered questions within minutes. The location is wonderful! Within easy walking distance to all the best spots in Cambridge. Perfect spot for moving our daughter into Uni. Will return as soon as possible!
