8 Craigie Street Cambridge, MA 02138

An Oasis of Calm in Harvard Square

Sold for: $2,800,000

Leave your worries behind and move right in to 8 Craigie St. This beautifully renovated and meticulously maintained house checks all the boxes. With 5 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, it is the perfect size; it is located in a premier West Cambridge location with easy access to Harvard Square and Huron Village; and it flows from room to room like an “open floor plan” while still offering the functionality of separate rooms. The current owner took time to renovate the house with care and style, creating a master suite with a beautiful private bath, a large well-fitted closet, and a peaceful bedroom large enough for a king size bed. In 2013 the kitchen got an equivalent make over, and now has white cabinets, granite counters and a generous island. The kitchen overlooks the south facing yard with a newer deck and beautiful gardens. Need more space? There is a full unfinished basement and a 3rd floor with two additional bedrooms and a full bath. Garage for 1 car + a driveway for a 2nd car.
