About This Home
As of July 2018Sited at the corner of two tree-lined west-Cambridge residential streets, this residence is a minute away from Huron Village's many shops and convenient to Harvard and Porter Squares and the T. Delightfully open floor plan and oversize windows. Gracious spaces for entertaining; nicely integrated living, dining and kitchen areas, 3 good-size bedrooms; a fenced garden, two large decks, generous storage space. The residence is unusual in that the first-floor library has an entirely separate entrance, a small waiting area, and access to a half-bath, making it ideal as a professional home office suite. The basement lends itself to use as a workshop. The living room is nearly 24' in length, and it has a wood-burning fireplace, a beautiful oak floor and a French door to the garden. Master bedroom with cathedral-ceiling and skylight, large closet space. Excellent systems. Fenced garden, a good-size storage shed at the far end of the driveway, and two-car tandem parking.
