About this home

Harvard Square/Mid Cambridge! Prominently situated on a corner lot just four blocks to Harvard Yard, this beautifully proportioned 5 bed / 4.5 bath 1859 Victorian home has fantastic bones and warmth to match. On the first floor, the foyer opens to two sun-flooded rooms, each anchored by a decorative fireplace. The expansive kitchen at the rear offers ample workspace, a breakfast nook, and seamless flow to the deck outside. A family room and half bath complete this floor. The second-floor library is a bibliophile's dream, and is joined by the primary bedroom - with en-suite bath - and another large bedroom and bath. The third floor offers two more bedrooms, a study, and a deck with leafy treetop views. The 800+ SF lower level offers wonderful potential, and outside, thoughtful landscaping abounds, with mature rhododendrons and wisteria. Parking is a breeze, with garage plus two parking spaces. Don't miss this rare opportunity to renovate an historic home in a vibrant Cambridge location!
