Fabulously renovated in 2024, this updated corner unit at the Charles Square Residences offers elegant living in the heart of Harvard Square, with seasonal views of the Charles River, JFK Park, Harvard Yard, and the athletics complex. The bright, open floor plan features a private balcony off the living and dining area, complemented by newly installed hardwood floors and recessed lighting throughout. The spacious kitchen was fully renovated in 2024 with quartz countertops, tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a passthrough to the dining area. The primary bedroom includes a renovated en-suite bath and a walk-in closet, while a second large bedroom is served by another beautifully updated full bathroom. Additional features include in-unit laundry, high-end Hunter Douglas window treatments in every room including blackout shades in the bedrooms and fresh paint throughout. A deeded garage parking space conveniently located near the elevator and a private storage unit are also included. The Charles Square Residences is one of Cambridge's most desirable buildings, offering 24-hour concierge service, an elevator, and thoughtfully maintained indoor and outdoor common areas.
