17 Gray Street, Unit 4
Listed for $750,000
Tucked along a quiet one-way street just moments from Mass Ave, Unit 4 at 17 Gray Street offers a rare sense of calm in the heart of Cambridge. This oversized one-bedroom lives generously, with an easy flow for entertaining, abundant windows and high ceilings. The beautiful dining room features a built-in that adds warmth and function, and the kitchen opens easily into the main living spaces, creating a natural place to gather. The bath carries a sense of character with its clawfoot tub. Mini-split A/C and efficient systems, including a newer boiler, bring modern comfort complemented by freshly painted interiors and a mix of brand new and newly refinished floors. Outside, a shared native pollinator garden creates a lush, ever-changing backdrop. From here, life settles into an easy Cambridge rhythm: morning coffee along Mass Ave, afternoons wandering around the Quad, evenings in Harvard Square. Just a few blocks from Bagelsaurus & Giulia, it’s a setting that feels both connected and quietly removed.
