A timeless quality defines this 1890s home, reimagined with care and craftsmanship. Set on a quiet, tree-lined street in Cambridge’s Radcliffe neighborhood, it offers a rare balance of privacy and proximity to the best of the city, with a welcoming arrival at the end of a private brick driveway framed by vibrant gardens and stone wall accents that mirror the front entry steps. Thoughtfully rebuilt, it blends historic architecture with modern upgrades including high ceilings, a granite-framed gas fireplace, a heated garage, custom sconces, oversized windows with custom Hunter Douglas treatments, and an expansive fenced patio and yard that extend the living space outdoors.

The main level was designed for both ease and entertaining, with a living room that flows into a dedicated dining area and well-appointed kitchen. Thermador appliances—including a gas cooktop with vented hood, double wall oven, and panel-ready French door refrigerator—are paired with polished fossilized limestone counters. The home features premium quarter-sawn oak flooring throughout, valued for its stability and distinctive linear grain from the heart of a mature tree. Its warm, cognac-butter finish adds depth and a level of quality rarely found in standard hardwood. A beadboard powder room and coat closet are tucked between the front entry and the interior door to the garage, completing this level.

Upstairs, the primary suite offers ample space with three closets and a spa-like bath, finished with a custom double vanity with fossilized limestone granite top, a glass-enclosed shower with matching granite, a BainUltra clawfoot soaking tub, radiant heated floors, and a Toto toilet. Two additional bedrooms share a full bath, finished with a Carrara marble vanity and classic subway tile, while a stacking Bosch washer and LG dryer provide laundry convenience in the hall.

The lower level offers hardwood floors, great ceiling height, and natural light—perfect for a family room, office, or studio. With an attached heated garage, automatic door, and extra storage, 11 Avon Street pairs historic character with modern comfort and an ideal location near Harvard and Porter Squares, the Red Line, and Mass Ave favorites like Giulia, Barcelona Wine Bar, and Bagelsaurus.

Rare end-unit “townhouse” loft with massive private roof deck, originally designed and renovated by the developer as his own home. The main living area spans 46 feet, framed by large windows on three sides and 12-foot ceilings, with the upper loft soaring even higher. The layout includes two primary bedrooms plus three additional flexible spaces ideal for guest quarters or offices. The bath suite is thoughtfully arranged with a separate changing room and dedicated laundry area. The home is efficiently heated by water and cooled by a separate central AC system. A brand new mahogany roof deck is accessed via a full-sized stairwell, offering exceptional private outdoor space. This unit is complete with a garage parking spot and secure storage room. Village is a small, quiet street, discreetly dotted with $2M+ modern, architecturally significant homes. Enjoy a quick stroll to the burgeoning Kirkland Village, 15-minute walk to Harvard Square via Professors’ Row, or stone’s throw to Union Square.
