46 Hudson Pl, Cambridge, MA 02138

Just outside Harvard Square, this charming cottage combines colonial-era spirit and 21st-century appointments. The eat-in kitchen features custom oak cabinetry, stone counters, stainless appliances, and a beer/wine cooler. French windows open to a deck and private backyard, perfect for casual use or a dinner party. A pantry/playroom off the kitchen leads to a half bath, and upstairs are two bedrooms and a full bath. A full-height basement and off-street parking spot complete this rare offering. In 2014 the first and second floors were completely remodeled with dense foam insulation and upgraded electric. Ceilings were raised in the second floor and central air conditioning installed. The living room exposed original beams from the 18th century with pegs, adding to the charm of the cottage. The high ceiling basement was fully remodeled in 2015 with a bedroom, full bath with jacuzzi tub, laundry room, shop, and a furnace room. The heating and hot water were upgraded to an on-demand system. Solar panels were added to a newly laid roof in 2018.
