About This Home

As of January 2023

Beautifully preserved as a monument of its time, 50 Concord Avenue is a single family residence located in historic Observatory Hill, Cambridge. Once embraced as a dormitory for Lesley University, then held in single ownership for over 60 years, this home delights with timeless Cambridge character and charm. Sitting on a spacious lot with a private fenced in front and back yard, the house is set back off the street creating a sense of solitude in a bustling, energetic neighborhood. Living options and potential abound with over 3,600 SF of existing finished living area and expansion options into a 500+ SF basement, huge attic space, and favorable underlying city zoning. Completed with extra basement space for a home office or gym, two car parking and a large private yard. Conveniently located down the street from Cambridge Common, Harvard Square and Huron Village and also easily accessible to Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s and more.
