A rare opportunity to rent a thoughtfully updated first-floor apartment that truly feels like home. This inviting space blends classic period charm with modern updates, offering far more character than a typical "four walls" apartment. The modern kitchen features white shaker-style cabinetry, granite countertops, a subway tile backsplash, and a convenient overhang for barstool seating. Perfect for entertaining, the apartment also includes a formal dining room with beautiful red oak hardwood floors, French doors, crown moldings, and decorative lighting. Located on a lightly traveled side street, the home offers a quiet residential feel while remaining highly convenient to Cambridge and Boston via public transportation or car. Additional highlights include a washer and dryer dedicated exclusively to the apartment in the basement, open basement storage, and gas-powered heating and hot water. First month's rent, last month's rent, and security deposit are due at move-in.
