  • Property Description
    86 Avon Hill St. is a truly distinctive home- sited beautifully on one of Cambridge's most desirable streets. A stunningly built, Classic, Gambrel Roof Colonial with living area on three levels and an untapped basement. This special property (c.1880) shows off the quality of construction and the fine detail from the era in which it was built. 9' ceilings, large/restored windows, pocket doors, tiled fireplace, and hardwood floors elicit a feeling of warmth, rare in today's offerings. It was built as an attached single- like many houses in Avon Hill from this era. The connecting wall is the north-facing one and the house is oriented East to West with natural light all day. The lay-out includes 6 bedrooms- providing flexible uses- including a top-floor suite- perfect for guests, au pair or offices. Beautiful landscaping, mature trees and a large rear deck create a sense of space and calm. A gem not often found!
