Unique opportunity to own a large family compound! This property consists of two detached luxury single-family homes that are deeded as condominiums. The front house is a historic Greek Revival house dating to 1841. It was once home to 19th-century women’s rights advocate Margaret Fuller, and it maintains its classic exterior and many of its original details while offering 21st-century livability. While the front house completed the renovation of a lifetime in 2022, the rear carriage house is a completely new structure. Its custom-built steel and wood stairway thoughtfully echoes the original wooden curved staircase of the larger house. Both homes offer all new systems, professional-grade Viking kitchen appliances, a 1:1 ratio of bedrooms to full bathrooms, gas fireplaces, and private outdoor space. There is parking for 2 cars with EV charging stations. This property is truly unique and ready for another century as a Cambridge landmark.
