    Overview

    The property at 588-590 Cambridge St includes six total apartments: five 1-bedroom units and one 2-bedroom unit. All units are separately metered for heat, hot water, and electricity, which supports tenant-level utility billing and streamlined landlord expense management. The building also includes four dedicated off-street parking spaces located in the rear.

    Zoned R4, this residential income property is described as being steps from the Green Line and within close reach of major universities and local dining, supporting tenant convenience for everyday commuting and errands.

    For buyers seeking a small multifamily with a manageable unit count, the current lease rollover schedule may be a key consideration. Four leases expire August 31, 2026, one unit is tenant-at-will, and one unit is leased through July 31, 2027. That mix of term lengths creates defined points in time to review renewals. The offering is structured as a for-sale transaction; request the full financial breakdown from the listing agent for details supporting underwriting and expected operating costs.
