About 26 Columbia St

Columbia Street is a fully leased six (6) unit multi-family building ideally located in the Central Square area of Cambridge, MA. Located in the heart of Central Sq., walking distance to MIT, labs of Kendal Sq., shops, restaurants, public transportation and all Cambridge has to offer. The property is made up of a single building with six (6) market rate units. The left side mirrors the right side with each unit boasting 4 beds, 1.5 baths, forced hot by gas, Central AC and in-unit laundry. The walk-out basement includes bike storage and private storage lockers for each unit. Each unit pays their own utilities and the building’s small footprint offers low ongoing maintenance.
