About this home

Steps to Davis square and one block off Mass Ave in Cambridge sits the Alanzo Smith House. Set on a 10K sf lot this historic home has been in the same family for over 50 years. Currently comprised of 3 units, the first floor owners unit is a step back to a Victorian era and holds a generous foyer, large living room, study, dining room (could be another bedroom), two bedrooms and an eat in kitchen. On the second floor is a charming one BR with generous sized rooms filled with natural light. The third unit, a duplex, has a kitchen, living room, dining room, office, exterior cafe style patio, 1/2 bath with laundry on one level (second floor) and two BR plus full bath on the third floor. Also on the 3rd floor, and reminiscent of Paris, is an artist studio with large sliding doors that lead to a deck with unobstructed views of the surrounding neighborhood. This is a rare opportunity to steward this historic home on an oversized lot within the vibrancy of Davis Square.
