Property Description
This impressive offering is discreetly nestled in West Cambridge not far from Harvard Square and the Charles River. A stunning testament to its visionary owners, the home offers a seamless blend of a contemporary art gallery aesthetic with the timeless elegance of a 19th-century Georgian Revival estate. Striking a balance between modern and traditional, the residence pairs period charm with luxe minimalist interiors. The resulting property is a true tour de force from Boston-based architecture and design firm Stern McCafferty. A striking Cor-Ten steel addition adds warm and earthy tones, complementing the traditional 1905 brick structure. Insulated from the outside world by lush, meticulously maintained grounds, this extraordinary property offers an array of outdoor spaces including shaded patios, vibrant gardens, cascading vines, and a versatile sport court. This dream-like property presents a rare opportunity for the most discerning buyer—an experience beyond words.
