“All of us here have reasons to be grateful,” the owners said, reflecting on their 25 years in Cambridge. Their story began with a chance encounter at a local coffee shop when they learned 31 Ash Street was available, and they had that inexplicable and enduring feeling of being home when they walked through the door. They have loved their neighborhood, with its strong sense of community, connection to the Charles River, & access to Harvard Sq. They have loved the light in the house that pours in from every direction, the front entrance design, the privacy of their bedroom suite, the flexibility of the other three suites & their secret garden. They loved having a formal dining room for large gatherings & a casual eat-in kitchen/family room for every day, and most importantly, they are grateful for the 1999 renovation, which allowed them to live comfortably & worry-free. As they retire, they are pleased that someone else will now have the opportunity to love 31 Ash Street as they have!
