Humboldt Residence

The Humboldt Residence is the first completely new residence in the Avon Hill Conservation District of Cambridge, MA in close to 70 years.  While blending the history of its surrounding Victorian neighbors, this 2nd Empire Mansard embodies the old world charm with acute attention to detail while delivering all modern amenities from smart thermostats, heated driveway, gorgeous Chef's kitchen and spa-like masters quarter's, and complimented by the intricate moldings and craftsmanship seldomly seen.

A house that looks as though it were built when Napoleon III ruled France some 150 years ago.
