Ever covet a substantial piece of furniture and then remember those weren’t made for Boston-area condo life? Get ready to put on your interior designer hat because with unit 201 at 147 Sherman Street in Cambridge, just about anything is on the table. Including a 20-foot table.

Looking for a home that breaks the mold? The freshly renovated loft delivers the real deal: 13-foot ceilings, more than 40 feet of uninterrupted space from living room to kitchen, and the kind of open layout that invites big ideas. Whether you’re hanging a statement piece or a pool table, there’s room to stretch out and stay inspired.

The custom kitchen is a showstopper — designed for serious cooking and seamless entertaining, it’s more than just a place to prep. Wide counters, sleek cabinetry, and generous storage make it easy to flex your culinary muscles. Around the corner, a pair of sleeping areas offer restful nooks that don’t interrupt the flow of the space. And if you’ve ever dreamed of going up, roof rights make future expansion a real possibility — build up and make the view your own.

Two parking spaces seal the deal — an incredibly rare find in Cambridge, where parking is more often a wish than a reality. Step outside and you’re minutes from green space at Danehy Park, scenic trails around Fresh Pond, and all major routes in and out of Boston and Cambridge.

Open house hours are Saturday and Sunday, June 7 and 8, from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.

On the market for $1,094,000, the sale of the home is represented by Paul Campano at Keller Williams Realty Boston Northwest, 617-304-3686.
