Property Description
Classically gorgeous, this architectural marvel was designed by a prominent architect also responsible for the design of Boston College and Churches in the area. As such, every detail of this West Cambridge home is uniquely beautiful. From the grand staircase, to the seven fireplaces and stunning stained-glass windows, every piece adds to its manor-like charm. Desirably located, Harvard and other prominent university are in close proximity, though being on the property and surprisingly quiet gardens leaves one forgetting they are in a city. The lush garden area is full of sweetly fragrant flowers, bringing hummingbirds in the summer. Inside, this home has many spacious rooms ideal for entertaining, while still having spaces to be alone and in peace. Each room has its own charm, making it the perfect place for a family. The property has seen generations grow up, giving them a warm and welcoming place to call home.
