A rare opportunity to enjoy the privacy and charm of a freestanding single family home in the heart of coveted Cambridge. Tucked along a tree lined side street, this light-filled 1886 gem beautifully blends historic character with comfortable city living. The inviting living room features a wood-burning fireplace and dual exposures, while the open kitchen and dining area is surrounded by natural light and opens through glass doors to a private deck and fenced garden, an idyllic setting for entertaining, dining outdoors, or simply relaxing. Throughout the home, handsome wood floors, generous ceiling heights, abundant windows, and a beautiful 19th-century stained-glass window add warmth and architectural character. Upstairs are three bedrooms PLUS A DEN along with an updated bath. Lovely neighborhood views, a full basement, and newer systems complete the home. Just one block from the Charles River and Cambridge Skating Club and approximately 0.7 mile to Harvard Square and the Red Line, this special residence offers the best of Cambridge living, historic charm, private outdoor space, and remarkable access to Harvard, MIT, MGH, and downtown Boston.
