Property Description

A rare opportunity to own one of Cambridge's most discreet yet storied residences. Tucked away just blocks from Harvard Yard, 103 Irving Street was once home to legendary chef Julia Child, whose iconic kitchen is now preserved at the Smithsonian. The gracious home with culinary pedigree has since been thoughtfully renovated for 21st century luxury living while retaining the architectural detail and grand scale of another era. Beautifully proportioned spaces lend themselves to both everyday living and elegant entertaining. Understated amenities abound, including a well-equipped butler's pantry that doubles as a caterer's kitchen, Poggenpohl cabinetry, gas fireplaces, a wine room, Lutron lighting, and powerful solar panel system. Outside, professionally landscaped irrigated grounds are complemented by an expansive brick patio framed by a stone wall. A wide porte cochère at the end of a long driveway provides sheltered parking. Rich in history and ideally situated near restaurants, performing arts, museums, and universities, this remarkable property is truly irreplaceable.
