Cambridge

A rare opportunity to rent a true Harvard Square gem. This Neo-classical home, c. 1847, was taken back to the studs and lovingly restored in the Asher Benjamin style. When you are in the home it’s hard to believe you are right in Harvard Square. The first floor features an elegant living room with a handsome fireplace, built-in bookshelves & cabinets, and a lovely entablature with Doric columns and pilasters. The dining room has French doors to a Neo-classical garden with a fountain and focal points. A charming country eat-in kitchen has a bay and walk-in pantry, mud room and lovely library with custom window shutters, built-in bookshelves and cabinets plus a guest lavatory. The second floor has a large primary bedroom, 4-piece bath with 2 sinks and 2 walk-in closets, 2 additional bedrooms and hall bath. The 3rd floor has a wonderful suite with a living/kitchenette, bedroom, bath and roof deck. There is also parking for 4 cars. Note: Some of these photos have been virtually staged.
