31 Concord Avenue, Unit 14, Cambridge MA 02138

Sold for $799,000

Turn off Concord Avenue, just beyond the Cambridge Common, and make your way to the quiet entrance of one of Cambridge’s most gracious pre-war brick buildings. On the third floor, unit #14 of 31 Concord Ave, offers a wonderfully classic “Cambridge” place to live. With 2 large bedrooms which look out over the leafy neighborhood to the northeast, and a separate study and fireplaced living room which look to the southwest, it has high ceilings, nice light and the style and charm of its 1920s roots. The kitchen is simple in all the right ways with newer appliances and exposed brick accents, and the bathroom has its original claw-footed tub and tile floor. The building is well cared for by an active group of owners who have the boiler (‘06), the roof (‘10), and the hot water heater (‘16). Recently they have been replacing the plumbing risers in the building. Brilliantly located and wonderfully stylish, 31 Concord Ave #14 is classic and quiet and might be just what you have been looking for!
