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 promoted by the common outdoor patio and gardening area just gives it a great homey feeling.
This dramatic and spacious home — ideal for entertaining — features a flexible open layout, large windows and soaring ceilings with exposed beams. You’ll love the stylish kitchen with its sleek island/breakfast bar, and the serene bedroom offering a full wall of custom closets, including a walk-in with deep overhead storage. Other perks include central air, off-street parking and a great common patio for lounging and grilling plus an area to garden! Located on a tree-lined side street in vibrant Inman Square with its many cafés, restaurants and shops, and midway between Central and Union Squares. The Red Line T at Central is only a half mile away, and both Harvard & MIT are within a mile. Walk Score = 93 “Walker’s Paradise” and Bike Score = 99 “Biker’s Paradise.” Well-run, professionally managed association — which has just completed extensive building upgrades inside and out — makes this a great option for owner-occupants and investors.
