A rare architectural gem in the heart of Mid-Cambridge, this expansive Bell & Fandetti attached single-family home (no HOA!) pairs iconic post-and-beam design with timeless modernity. Soaring vaulted ceilings, lofted spaces, exposed wood beams, and abundant natural light create a sense of openness and movement. The open-plan living and dining area, with refinished oak floors, extends seamlessly to a private fenced garden and deck, ideal for relaxation and entertaining. An updated kitchen with all new KitchenAid appliances, central air, and garage plus additional parking provide everyday comfort and convenience. The garden-level auxiliary apartment offers tremendous versatility, serving easily as an au pair suite, guest quarters, or extension of the living space. Ideally positioned between Harvard and Central Squares with easy access to the Charles River, Red Line MBTA stations, Mass Pike, and Storrow Drive, this home combines striking design with a coveted Cambridge location.
