Property Description
This 1860 front-gabled Cambridge house with Greek Revival elements sits in Porter Square. Morning light moves across a garden designed by Soren DeNiord, through floor-to-ceiling sliders, and onto decorative hardwood floors with perimeter inlay. A banistered staircase curves up from the entry, with sightlines reaching to the kitchen beyond. The living and dining rooms connect, with the living room spilling into a 1981 addition centered on a cast iron wood-burning stove. Eleven rooms unfold across three levels: three bedrooms and an artist's studio on the second floor; two more bedrooms under a finished attic with skylights, built-in bookcases, and a rope-handled stair. A bamboo fence encloses a garden room for repose, with a silver maple and an Asian magnolia. Gas-fired forced hot air, central AC, and an on-demand water heater were installed in 2014, along with a full basement fortification. Kitchen and baths await a new owner's vision. Close by: Davis Square and the MBTA Redline
