Cambridge House With A Tree In The Middle
Cambridge House With A Tree In The Middle I came across this photo from an office tour earlier this year. It was an amazing house at 44 Grozier Road in West Cambridge. Designed in the early 1980s by architect /owner Eduardo Catalano, it was definitely one of the most unusual houses we’ve been lucky enough to tour.
Tree Growing In The Middle Of A Cambridge House
There were many memorable elements but the one that caused the biggest stir was the tree growing up in the middle of the dining area, pictured here.
More about Catalano and his most well known designs can be found here, including additional photos of the house on Grozier Road.
I can remember a couple of us wondering if the house would be too “out there” for Cambridge home buyers or if perhaps some design enthusiasts would be in the market and able to afford it. We needn’t have worried – the house sold immediately – for more than $400,000 over the asking price.
