Tucked away from the street amid mature trees in coveted Mid Cambridge, this 2023 free-standing residence is an architectural masterpiece and private sanctuary. Designed by Suzumori Architecture and built to Passive House standards, the home pairs sculptural modernism with exceptional comfort, efficiency, and wellness. Curved walls, soaring 12-ft ceilings, a dramatic white oak staircase, and full-height triple-pane windows flood the interiors with natural light while framing the extraordinary two-tier garden by Christie Dustman Co.—a secluded urban oasis of native plantings, custom stonework, trellises, and tranquil gathering spaces. The Scandinavian-inspired kitchen showcases a 10-ft quartzite island and artisan mosaic backsplash. The soaring primary suite features a jaw-dropping Zen luxe bath with floor-to-ceiling tile, curbless shower, and dual vanity. Complementing the primary suite are two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a conveniently located laundry room, while a treetop studio with Juliet balcony provides a light-filled retreat for fitness, work, or creative pursuits. The finished lower level offers recreation space, guest accommodations, and a fourth bedroom with full bath. Enhanced by state-of-the-art smart-home technology, this one-of-a-kind residence delivers a holistic living experience where architecture, nature, and tranquility exist in perfect harmony.
Estimates — not financial advice
These figures are illustrative estimates for informational purposes only — not an appraisal, valuation, or guarantee of rent, income, or returns, and not financial, tax, or investment advice. Rent is either the figure reported on the MLS listing — in-place rent that may differ from market and is not verified against the actual leases — or, where the listing reports none, an estimate from HUD Small Area Fair Market Rents, a government benchmark that may differ from actual market rent. Each figure is labelled with its source. Cap rate, NOI, and returns depend on the assumptions shown, which you can change. MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date. Verify all figures independently and consult your own financial, tax, and legal advisors before making any investment decision.
