Hot Property: Updated Cambridge home delights
In the late 19th century, ancient Greek democracy and culture seemed to especially resonate with the young American republic. Naturally, this interest made its way into residential architecture, where Greek Revival homes gained popularity, peaking between the 1830s and 1850s.
A modest but lovely example of the style, circa 1844, is on the market via the Moses Bates House at 69 Thorndike Street in Cambridge.
Currently a two-family property featuring a four-bedroom main residence and a one-bedroom second-floor apartment, the residence retains some of the most beloved features of the Greek Revival era.
Restored and renovated to keep the home’s unique character and history, 69 Thorndike welcomes you with reeded Ionic columns supporting an inviting front porch, original wood shutters, floor-to-ceiling windows, and marble mantles.
The main residence sprawls across three floors, with the first floor offering spacious, adjoining living and dining spaces, cozy family room, and an updated kitchen with access to the deck and patio area.
A pair of bedrooms can be found on the second floor while the primary suite occupies the third floor, alongside a home office and private, treetop roofdeck.
The sale of the property, on the market for $3,500,000, is represented by Colleen Sleeper with Senné, 781-910-8526.
