Description
Upon entry, the residence unfolds into...Set on a quiet side street in the heart of Porter Square, this well-appointed three-bedroom condo offers a highly efficient layout, thoughtfully updated kitchen and bathroom spaces, and exceptional access to some of Cambridge’s most convenient amenities. Located within a classic six-unit Victorian brick building, the residence enjoys a front-to-back floor plan that maximizes natural light and functionality while placing everyday conveniences just moments away.
Upon entry, the residence unfolds into a cohesive open-concept living area that seamlessly connects the living room, dining space, and kitchen, with hardwood floors extending throughout. The kitchen features white shaker-style cabinetry, grey granite countertops, a marble tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a peninsula with seating accented by two drop-down pendant lights.

The first of three bedrooms is positioned just off the living room and faces Porter Road, with multiple exposures from new triple-paned windows that allow natural light throughout the day. The room offers ample closet space as well as flexibility for an additional desk or work-from-home setup. Beyond the kitchen, the remaining two bedrooms provide additional closet and storage space and are well-suited for guest accommodations, office use, or flexible living arrangements. Positioned opposite these rooms is the full bathroom, finished with a black-and-white ceramic tile floor, classic white subway tile, and a gracious stall shower.
Additional features include central air conditioning, private basement storage, and laundry within the building. 6 Porter Road combines the scale and character of a traditional Victorian with convenient access to Porter Square Shopping Center, where Star Market, CVS, Tags Hardware, Healthworks, and a variety of cafés/restaurants are all ~400 feet away. The home is also conveniently located near the Porter Square Red Line station and commuter rail, Davis and Harvard Squares, and Harvard and Lesley Universities — providing seamless access to Cambridge, Boston, and beyond.
