Property Description

Harvard Square is a plaza at the intersection of Massachusetts Avenue and Brattle Street, in the heart of Cambridge. Right next to Harvard Square is the Harvard Yard, and the square thus has a distinct college town character as the commercial center for Harvard University with iconic red brick lining the streets. It is easily accessible by the MBTA Red Line’s Harvard stop. Nearby is the JFK Memorial Park, the Cambridge Common, and the original birthplace of Newe Towne, which is what Cambridge was originally known as. There are several cafes, eateries, and shops in Harvard square with old and new character alike.

Have You Considered Buying
Your Own Home?

Instead of paying $3,050/mo in rent, these homes may have a similar monthly mortgage.

This is an estimate based on a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage at 7.242% interest, 20% down payment, $120/mo homeowners insurance, and the average property tax rate of 10.90 in the Boston area. Actual interest rates, property taxes, and homeowners insurance will vary. Does not include additional expenses or fees such as closing costs, PMI, or HOA fees. Buyers must complete their own due diligence based on current market conditions.
