18 Brown Street
18 Brown Street, Cambridge MA 02138
Sold for $3,125,000
Cambridge is full of wonderful nooks and crannies. One of the most charming of which is just outside of Harvard Square between Brattle Street and the Charles River. The Marsh Conservation District is made up of antique houses on pretty tree lined streets with sweet gardens. Built in 1873, enlarged in 1925, and extensively renovated in 1998, 18 Brown Street is one of the neighborhood gems. The interior has been opened up so that you have a beautiful view from the kitchen, through the dining room, and out to a large, handsome patio in the back. A cozy den, also on the first floor, provides the space to step away and be quiet. Upstairs, there are three bedrooms and two full bathrooms including a possible primary suite with full bathroom and a sitting room. The light throughout the house is stunning and the architectural details, especially around the three fireplaces, preserve the original sensibility of the house. If you have been looking for a warm and welcoming home near Harvard Square this could definitely be it!
