About This Home
As of July 2023A classic West Cambridge two-family, 204-206 Lakeview Avenue is that rare property, completely and meticulously renovated by its long-term owners for their own use, built to last and with quality throughout. Pella Architect Series windows, fireplaces in both units, a custom-designed stair tower finished in oak, and a spic-and-span basement with excellent systems help set this property apart. The upper two floors, completely rebuilt in 1998, make a beautiful home, with three bedrooms, two luxurious full bathrooms, custom cherry cabinetry, Runtal radiators, beautiful light throughout, and a delightful open plan kitchen-family-dining room. The first floor— with two bedrooms, an updated kitchen and bath, and private deck— has provided solid rental income. Both units overlook the magnificent back yard, fully planted with native species and a haven for birds. Fresh Pond and the shops and restaurants of Huron Village are a block away, and Whole Foods and the Alewife T station are close by.
