Buying a Condo in Porter Square

There are just a ton of condos sprinkled all across Porter Square on both the Somerville and Cambridge lines. In fact, there were 97 that sold in 2025 as of this writing (12/11/2025). One thing that’s really nice about the Porter Square section of Cambridge and Somerville is you have a nice mix of condo housing types - so whether you want to be in a small 6 unit association OR a 50-unit complex OR a detached townhouse OR a condo in a two unit association, there will likely be multiple options for you that consistently come available during the prime buying seasons in the spring, summer and fall.

In terms of what you can get in Porter Square when it comes to condos, expect to pay around $500k to $750k for a 1-bed, and a tick below that for a studio - think mid $400s. You may be able to get a dated 2-bed in the $600s, but nice 2-beds typically go for $800k to $950k. 3-beds that are dated and on the smaller side start at $1M but can easily go north of $2M for high-end options with over 2,500 square feet of living area. Generally 4-beds start around $1.5M and luxury 4-beds can go as high as mid to upper $3Ms.
