About this home

A crisp and stylish condominium on wonderful Fayerweather Street, this four-bedroom home was gut-renovated in 2014 and meticulously maintained and updated since. Cross the classic front porch to an entry mudroom, with an open-plan dining room/living room beyond. Bookcases and abundant light enliven the space. The kitchen has clean lines, excellent lighting, and a large central island with pendants and barstool seating. In the back of the first floor are a full bath, main bedroom with private bath and walk-in closet, and a bedroom that opens to the shared back porch. Downstairs is a full-height (7' 3")  lower level with a large bathroom with washer and dryer, a spacious family room, two bedrooms, and a workshop/utility room. The shared backyard has mature plantings and an exclusive-use patio. Close to Fresh Pond, Danehy Park, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, public transit, the new Darby Vassall middle school, and the shops and restaurants of Huron Village. A perfect Cambridge condo to call home!
