About this home

Cambridge is full of wonderful nooks & crannies. One of the most charming of which is just outside of Harvard Sq. between Brattle St. & the Charles River. The Marsh Conservation District is made up of antique houses on pretty tree-lined streets with sweet gardens. Built in 1873, enlarged in 1925, and extensively renovated in 1998,18 Brown St. is one of the neighborhood gems. The interior has been opened up so that you have a beautiful view from the kitchen, through the dining room, and out to a large, handsome patio in the back. A cozy den, also on the 1st flr, provides the space to step away and be quiet. Upstairs, there are 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms including a possible primary suite with a full bathroom and a sitting room. The light throughout the house is stunning and the architectural details, especially around the 3 fireplaces, preserve the original sensibility of the house. If you have been looking for a warm & welcoming home near Harvard Sq. this could definitely be it!
