Sunny, renovated Victorian 3fl studio apt on quiet st. close to Harvard/MIT

Hello!

We are looking for a quiet individual to rent our modern, sunny, south-facing, energy-efficient, central AC, 3rd floor studio apartment. Set on a quiet, tree-lined street, this beautifully restored Victorian home is located in the historic...
Cambridgeport neighborhood - steps away from Central Square shops, restaurants and businesses (5-minute walk to Central Square, 15-minute walk to Kendall / MIT / Harvard, 5-minute walk to the Charles River / Memorial Drive). This studio + 1 bathroom, furnished apartment is illuminated by skylights with mahogany hardwoods and spa-like bath with soaking tub. Water, sewer, snow removal, 24/7 outdoor security camera / monitoring services are included in rent. Gas / electricity / WiFi are to be paid by tenant. Street parking is available with a Cambridge city permit. The Unit has been very well-maintained by the owner-couple: Senior Govt. Administrator / Columbia University alumna, and Professor / MIT-EECS Ph.D. alumnus. Owners currently reside on the property in the first-floor apartment. The apartment has two closets with plenty of storage space and built-in closet organizers. Modern, open kitchen-dining-bedroom area with ample cabinet storage. Secure outdoor bike storage area is available on the property. W+D units are located in the basement. Apartment will come furnished (including a queen-size bed + mattress, study desk + chair etc.) – details to be shared during showings. Owners are looking to rent the entire apartment with a lease starting June 1, 2025. The total monthly rent for the apartment is $2500. Longer term leases -- for instance, covering the duration of an academic program or post-doctoral appointment -- will be favorably considered. In-person property showings are available with prior-scheduling.

**The unit is currently leased with an MIT post doctoral fellow through May 31, 2025.**

Good luck with your search!
