Transformed from a 1960’s residential complex into a high-end elevator building in 2007—this penthouse unit has dramatic ceiling height, an enormous skylight, hardwood floors, a wonderful patio with great views and an appealing open layout with two large ensuite bedrooms and two parking spaces, one of them in the garage. The kitchen features a dynamite 11-foot curved granite island with plentiful wood cabinetry and a GE Profile appliance suite. This location is convenient to everything—a few blocks from both Porter and Davis Square red line MBTA stops, the bike path and a plethora of restaurants, groceries, and specialty shops. This is a professionally managed building with high owner occupancy—it checks all the boxes for a low maintenance, no worry home in Cambridge.
