Nestled in the heart of Cambridge's historic district, 118 High Street is more than just a home—it's a meticulously restored 4,681 sq. ft. masterpiece that spans six bedrooms, four bathrooms, and two centuries of American storytelling. This extraordinary residence stands as a living monument, inviting you to become part of its rich, unfolding legacy. From its deep front porch offering iconic views of historic High Street to its carefully preserved interiors, the home tells a story that begins in 1790. Once the residence of Dr. William Van Murray, a diplomat personally appointed by President George Washington, the property later transformed into The Leonard House—a renowned steamboat travelers' inn that welcomed sailors, merchants, and diplomats from around the world. Step inside, and time seems to pause. The broad staircase, adorned with walnut posts and bannisters, whispers tales of genteel social gatherings. Ten-foot ceilings create an atmosphere of grandeur, complemented by elaborate trim, magnificent doors, and beautiful fireplaces that grace each space. Original pine half-paneling and hand-carved bannisters breathe life into every corner, while antique glass windows flood the rooms with natural light. Imagine the conversations that once echoed through these walls—diplomatic discussions, animated chatter of travelers, moments of historical significance etched into every beam and brick. Each room is a chapter of American history, waiting to be explored. The home's thoughtful floor plan offers remarkable flexibility. The first floor features a chef's kitchen with custom cabinetry, elegant countertops, and top-of-the-line appliances, plus a full bath with potential for a primary en suite. The second floor showcases four bedrooms, two renovated full baths, and a versatile family room or study. The primary suite serves as a personal sanctuary, featuring a luxurious full bath with a walk-in shower and Japanese-style soaking tub. Ascend to the third floor to discover two additional bedrooms, a renovated full bath, a den or library, and a convenient storage room—perfect for an au pair or guest space. Structural excellence meets historical preservation through extensive upgrades. Reinforced joists, new support beams, comprehensive crawl space insulation, and a protective vapor barrier ensure the home's stability for generations. A complete electrical system upgrade harmonizes modern comfort with historical charm. The property's magic extends outdoors, where beautifully landscaped gardens, a charming gazebo, and a spacious backyard create a private oasis. The back porch offers sweeping vistas of gardens and harbor—a visual symphony that captures the essence of this remarkable property. Driveway is located on the rear side of the home and can be expanded. Located in Cambridge's prestigious historic district, 118 High Street is more than a residence—it's a lifestyle that provides access to the vibrant shopping district, entertainment, local restaurants, and the Cambridge Marina puts the best of the community at your doorstep.
