A timeless quality defines this 1890s Queen Anne, reimagined with care and timeless craftsmanship. Set on a quiet, tree-lined street in Cambridge’s Radcliffe neighborhood, it balances privacy with connection to the best of the city. This isn’t your typical renovation. Thoughtfully rebuilt, it blends historic architecture with refined details: bedrooms that rise to cathedral ceilings, oversized windows with custom Hunter Douglas treatments, a granite-framed gas fireplace, 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 powder room with beadboard detailing is adjacent to the entryway and completes this floor.
Upstairs, the primary suite offers ample space with three closets and a spa-like bath, complete 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, generous ceiling height, and natural light—ideal for a family room, office, or studio. With an attached heated garage, automatic door, and extra storage for everyday ease, the home is enhanced by touches of luxury such as custom sconces in several rooms and Baldwin glass doorknobs.
11 Avon Street offers the best of Cambridge living: historic character paired with modern comforts, with restaurants, cafes, Harvard and Porter Squares, the Red Line, and the Commuter Rail all within easy reach.
