Property Description

A grand Victorian refined and reimagined with quiet sophistication, 177 Hancock St offers unparalleled single-family living in the heart of Mid-Cambridge, replete with 2-car parking and a full ADU. Defined by gracious proportions and tactile, organic finishes, the entire home radiates an inviting airy warmth. The bespoke kitchen sets the tone, with honed Vermont marble, unlacquered brass hardware, and custom light fixtures—materials echoed in the mudroom and walk-in pantry. Oversized glass doors open to a landscaped backyard and large bluestone patio. A stunning sculptural staircase lit by an oversized skylight and cascading pendants leads to the upper floors, which host 6 bedrooms and 4 baths, including 2 lavish primary suites overlooking the yard. With a private entry, full kitchen, and laundry, the 1-bed ADU offers seamless space for family or an au pair. Moments to Harvard, Inman, and Central Squares, 177 Hancock is a rare opportunity in one of Cambridge’s most desirable neighborhoods.
