    Step into this rare and lovingly maintained full-floor 3BR condo in the heart of Cambridge. With sunlight pouring in through multiple skylights and a layout designed for both comfort and flexibility, this home is ideal for couples, young families, or roommates with different space needs, and dogs will be considered case by case. For rent by owner, this space has happily accommodated our lives from a busy young professional couple to a family of four. This light-filled, freshly painted unit features a large main bedroom with spacious built-in closet, an oversized bathroom with tub, an open living room and dining room with wall tv mount, built-in bookshelves and office nook, a kitchen with new dishwasher, fridge and stove, a bonus pantry with extra freezer, central A/C and heat, a private newly rebuilt deck, in-unit washer/dryer (plus a bonus set in the basement), a dedicated basement storage unit, and off-street parking. Centrally located between Harvard and MIT, this condo is steps from the Central Square Red Line station and Inman Square, and walkable to multiple parks, coffeeshops, restaurants, Whole Foods, gyms and more. Don't miss this rarely available home, only rented twice in 25 years! Owner pays for water and condo fees. Renter is responsible for gas and electric.
