This charming Cambridge single is tucked away from the bustle of the city, almost like a secret garden. The south-facing house looks over a private landscaped yard, and sun streams in the front windows. A welcoming front porch opens to a good-sized entry hall--to the left is the surprisingly spacious kitchen with center island and separate dining area; to the right is a large, comfortable living room with a picture window offering views to the yard.

The south-facing house looks over a private landscaped yard, and sun streams in the front windows. A welcoming front porch opens to a good-sized entry hall--to the left is the surprisingly spacious kitchen with center island and separate dining area; to the right is a large, comfortable living room with a picture window offering views to the yard. On the second floor are a full bath, bedroom, and a room that could be used as a studio, library, or media room. A sun-soaked deck sits just off the stairs that lead to the cozy third floor, with two bedrooms whose wide-pine floors and exposed beams reveal the house's 19th-century origins. Basement holds a washer and dryer and a recently installed gas-fired boiler. Two off-street parking spots. Close to the Charles River, the Skating Club, and the shops, restaurants, and the Red Line Harvard Square T. Please DO NOT park on Maynard Place.
