In 2002, this newly renovated home was purchased by a California venture capitalist who moved to Cambridge to attend Harvard Divinity School.

The interior includes a combination of Arts and Crafts elements and traditional English components, reflecting the owner's quiet taste. Subtle details, including a pair of Gothic chairs and a stained ­glass window in the entryway, pay homage to his interest in Christianity.

Favored colors––blue and white––appear throughout the four ­story home in a variety of ways. A respect for tradition helped inform decorating choices that created an inviting space with a calming effect.
