Cambridge, MA 02138
Dynamite location near Harvard Square and the Charles River, yet tranquilly sited far back from the street for serene living. The private entry leads to an exceptionally large, exceptionally charming second floor with all of the rooms on one level—a rarity. The abundant windows on four sides provide great light and pretty views with good window privacy. The generously sized living room has a bay window, wood-burning fireplace, custom cabinetry and shelving. The dining room, also with a fireplace, bay window and wall of bookshelves, is open to the kitchen for a contemporary lifestyle. Two of the 4 bedrooms are used as offices now, and the professional office, with its private entry and half bath, would serve well as a bedroom suite. Additional features include 2.5 baths; in-unit washer dryer; a private porch; high ceilings; wide pine and fir flooring; good closets; a private storage room in a nice basement. The chimney has been rebuilt, the flues lined, and an easy damper control was installed. One parking space, not tandem, plus one guest space for the building and use of the common garden and patios. Near the T, everything!
