1-3 Rockingham Place Cambridge MA

1st Floor Apartment at 1-3 Rockingham Place Cambridge

“Meticulously maintained.” We use this term a lot in real estate. After seeing 1-3 Rockingham Place in Cambridge MA I have to think that sometimes we’ve used that term too loosely. 1-3 Rockingham Place truly sets the standard for meticulously maintained – even the cellar sparkles.  Everywhere you look this property has been superbly cared for and maintained.  I’m wowed at every turn.

1-3 Rockingham Place is tucked away in a wonderfully private setting just around the corner from the Charles River, the BU Bridge, Magazine Beach, the Morse School, Trader Joe’s and much more.

Downstairs there’s a five-room apartment with an eat-in kitchen, living room, dining room and two bedrooms.  There are hardwood floors, bulls eye moldings, a china closet in the dining room, original mantel in the living room, high ceilings, and lots of windows. The walls, ceilings and floors are in excellent condition.

Gleaming Hardwood Floors in the 2nd Floor Living Room

The second unit at 1-3 Rockingham Place is huge and includes a third floor that was added and expanded by the current owners.  The main level has gleaming hardwood floors and is flooded with light.  There are two bedrooms, a study, an eat-in kitchen with picture window, living room, dining room and full bath on this floor.  The large deck off the kitchen is partially covered / partially open and has gorgeous views.

Upstairs, there’s a large master bedroom with sliders to another deck with fabulous views.  There’s a large deep closet and a bath with shower en suite. There’s also an office and a spacious family room with skylight, picture window and woodburning stove on this floor. 

Outside, you’ll find two patio areas, garden beds, beautiful shrubs and fruit trees, a storage shed, and paved driveway.  The yard is fully enclosed by a handsome trellis-topped wood fence.
