About this home

Between Brattle and Huron, 119 Appleton commands a coveted West Cambridge address. Huron Village lends a European rhythm to daily life—stroll to Formaggio or the bank—while Fresh Pond’s trails and Harvard Square are just minutes away. This is a neighborhood where free-range kids rule the sidewalks and the front stoop is the heartbeat of local news. This classic two-family radiates early 20th-century craftsmanship: high ceilings, rich woodwork, gracious formal rooms and a sweet upstairs screened porch. The airy third floor—perfect for gatherings with family and friends—offers rare elevation and light. With a two-car garage and flexible potential for rental income, multi-generational living, or a grand single-family conversion, 119 Appleton is a singular opportunity in a cherished community.
