Approaching 149 Larch Road, you'll be astonished by the two story entryway which warmly greets you. Originally a two family, the home underwent a total gut renovation in 2007, and the finished product boasts such detail and size, that you will be hard pressed to find a similar home. A spectacular chefs kitchen is perfect for cooking and gathering. Handsome double parlor design great for entertaining, and large sliders open to a tremendous mahogany deck which overlooks a private yard as well the hidden gem: a garage converted to a condo quality entertainment room! The 2nd and 3rd floors of the home are comprised of 5 bds, 2 bths, and a master suite which has a private deck off the back, as well as a large ensuite bath with soaking Jacuzzi tub. Custom closets throughout the home, many cedar. The lower level, which walks directly out, makes a perfect in law apartment with its own full size kitchen, washer dryer and bath, and is recognized as an auxiliary unit by the city of Cambridge.
