Property Description

Kendall Square in Cambridge, Massachusetts, is known as one of the most innovative and entrepreneurial hubs in the world. Often called the "most innovative square mile on the planet," its home to a dense concentration of tech companies, research labs, and life sciences firms. Situated near the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Kendall Square has become a magnet for startups and established companies alike, particularly those focused on biotech, artificial intelligence, and advanced computing.

The neighborhood has a sleek, modern feel, with glass-fronted buildings, cutting-edge architecture, and a variety of public art installations that reflect its forward-thinking spirit. Despite its high-tech vibe, Kendall Square also has a strong community feel, with parks, green spaces, and a lively selection of restaurants, cafes, and breweries that attract both residents and professionals. The vibrant dining scene here ranges from casual eateries to fine dining, with a strong focus on local and sustainable cuisine.

Kendall Square's location on the Red Line makes it a convenient destination for those commuting to and from Boston, and it's a quick walk or bike ride to the scenic Charles River and other Cambridge neighborhoods. With its dynamic blend of academia, innovation, and community, Kendall Square has emerged as a unique destination where creativity and technology meet. "The most innovative square mile on the planet", as some have called it, Kendall Square is more than just the intersection between Main Street and Broadway. It is a hub for entrepreneurs and their start- ups, as well as academia thanks to its proximity to MIT. Residents pride themselves on the "work, live, play" mentality of this Cambridge neighborhood, one that came to be precisely because of its focus on innovation. Creative and scientific minds alike abound, and they find their respective outlets in the Square's carefully landscaped parks, open spaces, lab spaces, and incredible community sponsored amenities. These range from concerts to farmers markets and canoe rentals- depending on the season, of course! New high rises worth checking out have also given residents the incredible opportunity to have views overlooking the Charles River and Back Bay!

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.

Buyers must complete their own due diligence based on current market conditions.
