Property Description

178 Richdale Ave is located between the Avon Hill and Porter Square neighborhoods. The three-story building contains six (6) total units comprised of three (3) 4-Bedroom/1-Bathroom units and three (3) 2-Bedroom/1-Bathroom units with 6,279 square feet of gross living area and 8,404 square feet of gross area. The Property is situated upon a 10,506 sqft (0.24-acre) parcel and offers ample parking with sixteen (16) spaces available via a large lot to the side and rear of the Property. In-place rents are significantly below the current market rates; the opportunity exists to continue to drive rents to the top of the market in the competitive and desirable Cambridge multi-family market. The Property has been well maintained and features large units with generously sized common and kitchen areas, offering a highly desirable and functional layout. Additionally, the large well-situated lot lends itself for a higher density redevelopment given recent changes to Cambridge zoning.
