  • Property Description
    Some houses feel as though they’ve been lifted from the pages of a storybook; others gather stories of their own. At 73 Francis Ave, both feel true. Tucked on the circle at the end of Kirkland St., wrapped in ivy and surrounded by extraordinary gardens, the house feels almost hidden, like a secret discovered at the edge of Cambridge. From the street it carries the romance of a Cotswold cottage, unexpected and quietly enchanting among the trees. Inside, the rooms feel warm and inviting, shaped by conversation, books, meals, and the rhythms of daily life. At the back of the house, a light filled solarium brings the outside in and overlooks the gardens beyond. It is a place to gather, to eat, to tend plants, or simply retreat for a quiet moment. With 4 bedrooms plus a large study, 3.5 baths, & 3,605 sq. ft. of living space on a beautifully landscaped 6,591 sq. ft. lot, this lovingly cared for home is rich with character, warmth, and imagination, waiting quietly for what comes next!
