Property Description

Private showings only. Condo docs and minutes available. Set in Bowdoin Court between Harvard and Porter Squares, this sun-filled unit offers two bedrooms, a spacious living room with a fireplace, hardwood floors, and restored windows. The four-story brick building was designed by Harlow circa 1920 and converted to condominiums in 1977. Restaurants, cafes, the Red Line, Harvard, Lesley, and many of Cambridge’s major employers and institutions are all close by.The association is professionally managed, and the monthly condominium fee includes heat, hot water, water and sewer, snow removal, landscaping, trash removal, master insurance, and common-area maintenance. The unit is ready for renovation, with plumbing repairs needed before water can be properly restored to the kitchen and bathroom. The association is also planning a phased, building-wide plumbing stack project, with timing to be determined. With its sun exposure, original character, and flexible two-bedroom layout, the unit has the bones to become a standout Cambridge home and offers real upside for an owner-occupant or investor ready to take on the work.
