Buying a Single Family in Inman Square

If you’re thinking of buying a single family in Inman Square, it’s really going to come down to what specifically you are looking for. What I mean, is in 2025, 7 single families sold close to Inman Square, Cambridge and of those they really are broken down into very different categories.

First, you have your small houses - these are generally 900-1200 square feet homes. In Inman Square there are a mix of small detached singly family houses as well as attached rowhouse type single families. Either way, as of this writing (12/10/2025), I would budget around $900k to $1M for something like this. They often have just 2 beds or a 2 bed plus office/kids room type space.

Next up is what I refer to as the Inman Square “starter home” these are where you more typically will see 3 or 4 bed homes, typically in good condition, but often times not high end and on the smaller side. For these sort of homes, I typically see square footage of around 1400 sq ft to 1800 sq ft and they are most frequently either 3 or 4 bed homes. Often times parking is non-existent or the property may come with one small space or two very tight spaces. These single families in Inman Square typically go for $1.5M to $1.9M range. 

Finally, you have your high-end single family market in Inman Square. These homes tend to have 3 or 4 bedrooms, but the square footage starts to be larger - more like 2,200 sq ft all the way up to 4,000+ square feet. These homes to have excellent finishes throughout and are in extremely good, turnkey condition. They also are often on quiet, tree-lined streets and tend to have larger lots. These homes often start around $2M and can go up to $4M+ on the extremely high end.
