    It’s rare to find a 3-bedroom condo in Cambridge — much less one with two full baths — for less than a million in Cambridge. And yet this week I have the pleasure of listing one! A rare opportunity for someone to get that extra bedroom or home office they need, or an amazing investment opportunity, given the proximity to MIT, Harvard’s main campus AND the Business School across the River.

    I love an excuse to hang out in Inman Square, surrounding by so many of my favorite restaurants! And this gorgeous loft is in one of my favorite Cambridge condo buildings — The Chocolate Factory — a historic 19th-century building converted into loft condos about twenty years ago. It’s my third time listing in the building and I’ve gotten to know and love it so much over the years. Not only is the building an amazing space, but the sense of community among the residents promot

    What to expect this spring in Cambridge & Somerville real estate

    Happy 2019! After enjoying some rare downtime during the holidays, I’m back in full real estate mode today, and like so many people out there, wondering what the spring market will look like. If you’ve been out there looking, you’ve likely noticed that not a lot was happening this past fall / early winter. This is par for the course with our seasonal cycles, where the spring is super active, summer slows down, we get a brief uptick of activity after Labor Day and then things
