In 2005 they had a vision of the ideal city house, one that celebrates elegance, comfort & the beauty of its surroundings. On a private way abutting Longfellow Park, they have everything they need at their fingertips: the shops, restaurants, theater & public transportation in Harvard Sq, the Charles River, and the ease of coming and going from West Cambridge. Taken back to the studs & rebuilt, this re-imagined cottage has 5 bedrooms including a lovely master suite, 3 full & 1 half bathrooms, and a south-facing kitchen/dining room with oversized island & amazing storage. In the summer-time, they throw open the French doors and the bluestone patio & garden is their 9th room. In the winter, they light the gas fireplace in the living room and bask in the lovely light and the warmth of their surroundings. As they embark on a new chapter they will miss their beautiful home but trust that its next owner will delight in their vision and love living at 2 Willard Street Court as they have.
