About This Home

As of November 2013

Utterly charming condominium w/ old-world fireplace, leaded glass windows, both double hung and casement style, all with lovely courtyard views. This classic building, "The Castle", is a Cambridge landmark and features brick and stone with a beautifully landscaped courtyard. A short walk to Harvard and Central Squares. The unit features impressive historic character, a large, welcoming living/dining room and a snappy kitchen renovation with granite and stainless. The owner's improvements are many: a tasteful bathroom renovation in character with the historic details of the home, new ceilings in kitchen and living room, significant new wiring and plumbing. The alcove/study can be used as a small (6' x 12' approx.) separate bedroom (as per City record). Excellent mid-Cambridge location. Large private storage area, bike storage and two laundry rooms are located in the basement. A closet has been built outside the back (kitchen) door for extra strorage.
