About this home

11 Brown Street (c.1916) is tucked away on a quiet street amidst the hustle and bustle of this Harvard Square neighborhood. Set on a large, private, secluded and level ~.34 acre lot highlighted by its mature landscaped gardens, this property offers its next owner the opportunity to renovate a true Cambridge gem. A detached two car garage is just yet another feature of this welcoming property. The setting on Brown Street is truly unique and presents an incredible opportunity for restoration and updating.
