40 Highland Avenue, Unit 2 Cambridge MA, 02139
A Home Within A Home
Sold For: $1,300,000
40 Highland Avenue is a treasure box, opening and unfolding as you move through its neatly planned spaces to reveal a flexible and responsive environment perfectly suited to contemporary lifestyles. Comprehensively renovated in 2006, this duplex condo in the vibrant heart of mid-Cambridge offers updated systems, kitchen, and baths. With 9 rooms occupying the upper floors of a cheerful butter yellow Victorian, including 4 – 5 bedrooms and 2 full baths, the layout is unusually adaptable, inviting occupants to utilize its spacious and well-proportioned rooms however they wish. The current owners reserve the lower level for public spaces and entertainment, with family quarters upstairs, but one could just as easily have bedrooms on both floors. Park your car in a dedicated space behind the building; visit for a moment with your neighbors; then head upstairs to your private hideaway, truly a home within a home.
