Situated on a 4,838 SF lot, this versatile building offers a mix of commercial and residential spaces, ideal for investors, owner-users, or businesses seeking a prime location. Most recently used as office space by Hackett Publishing, the property comprises 15 rooms, including 1 kitchen and 3 half-bathrooms, making it well-suited for professional use, live-work arrangements, or future residential conversion. Built in 1887, it showcases classic Cambridge architecture with modern updates, just steps from MIT, Harvard, public transit, and a variety of restaurants and shops. Each floor features ~10' ceiling heights, creating a spacious, airy atmosphere. Recent zoning reforms allow for increased density and building heights, offering strong redevelopment potential for expansion, adaptive reuse, or higher-density housing. Don’t miss this rare chance to own a high-visibility, high-potential property in one of Greater Boston’s most dynamic markets.
