Property Description
Fantastic 1857 worker's cottage, nestled into the neighborly, leafy streets of West Cambridge, just a stone's throw from the Charles River and Harvard Square! The living space is both intimate and generous, with an open living/dining space with E-S-W exposures and a kitchen with elegant slate blue cabinets. Upstairs has two bedrooms with double closets and a large full bath. In the finished lower level, a walk-out third bedroom or home office is joined by a full bath, laundry, and copious storage. Outside, the back garden is terraced in herringbone brick and serenely surrounded by ivy-clad walls, offering the perfect setting for gardening or al fresco dining. Off-street parking! Mere steps to the Cambridge Tennis Club and Cambridge Skating Club, and a hop, skip and jump to the restaurants and cafés of Harvard Square. Just a block away, enjoy the sight of early morning rowers on the Charles and the sun breaking over the JFK Bridge. A very special Cambridge home!
