About This Home

As of July 2023

Once the home of legendary composer, Cole Porter, this gracious residence will leave you singing “Let’s Do It, Let’s Fall in Love!” Upon entering the foyer and book-filled dining room you are met with the living room’s soaring ceiling and a large fireplace flanked by walls of windows. Built-in bookshelves and direct access to a lovely private deck and yard, give the space both a warm and airy feel. It’s easy to imagine Porter entertaining friends at his piano while hosting the extravagant parties for which he was known. The second floor has three nice-sized corner bedrooms, two with beautiful fireplaces; a full bathroom and a laundry room. The spacious primary bedroom suite, with an office or potential dressing room, is located on the third floor. The lower level provides lots of additional storage space. Just down the street from the Longfellow House and a few blocks from the Charles River, 130 Brattle Street is a top location for enjoying all the best of Harvard Square and beyond.
