About this home

Pre-war elegance, spacious living, and river views in Harvard Square! 1920s craftsmanship shines at Longview, one of Harvard Square’s most iconic pre-war cooperative buildings. This grand and gracious 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath apartment features high ceilings, abundant built-in bookshelves, and a wood-burning fireplace in the expansive living room—perfect for elegant entertaining. Many windows frame views of the Charles River, while the formal dining room adds to the home’s timeless appeal. The well-maintained building includes two live-in superintendents, elevator access, and a private storage area. Outside, enjoy the beautifully landscaped common garden with flowering perennials. Steps from the Red Line, with nearby garage parking available for rent, this 100% owner-occupied co-op offers easy access to MIT, MGH, and Boston. Taxes and heat are included in the monthly fee. This is a dynamite option for classic Cambridge living along the banks of the Charles River.
