19 Centre Street # 3

Soaring ceilings, walls of glass, and leafy views make this Dana Hill home feel almost suspended in the trees. In 1980, this modern townhouse expanded an 1842 hilltop mansion. 18-foot ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows give this three-bedroom home unexpected scale in the heart of Mid-Cambridge. The main level centers around a dramatic double-height living room, where a fireplace anchors the space and an immense wall of windows rises nearly the full 18-foot height, framing private outdoor space and architectural columns beyond. The adjoining dining room flows directly onto the deck beneath a mature katsura tree, with a fenced grassy yard below. Renovated in 2022, the kitchen features granite counters, white cabinetry, open wood shelving, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and Bosch appliances. A bedroom and full bath occupy the main level, with two bedrooms and a second full bath above. The primary overlooks the double-height living room and opens through a Juliet balcony to the outdoors. Garage parking, in-unit laundry and basement storage round out the home. Quiet Centre Street offers a welcome reprieve with the energy of Cambridge just beyond. Harvard and Central Squares are each less than half a mile away, with two Red Line stations, Pammy’s, The Plough and Café Sushi nearby.
