Strawberry Hill is part of the Greater Boston area, and is positioned in the western corner of the neighboring city of Cambridge. Residents of Strawberry Hill find themselves right in between Cambridge's best spots; the Fresh Reservoir and the historic Mount Auburn. The two landmarks are connected by the wide and tree-lined avenue of Aberdeen.

Most of Strawberry Hill was divided into lots in the mid 1800s, when the economic decline halted development. Hence, many of the homes here were not constructed until the later part and turn of the century. The pastoral dwellings often boast generous lots and wonderful grape arbors, situated in well-kept and colorful gardens. Sometimes, you'll even find a few chickens strolling about in one of the yards, making you feel like you're right in the middle of the country!

Strawberry Hill features a number of amenities, like the Star Market grocery store, the Cambridge Public Library and the Fresh Pond Reservation. The reservation includes a public golf course, a playground and a walking path around the adorable little pond.

The neighborhood is very accessible thanks to ample public transit, and is only around two miles to the Harvard Square stop by trolley or bus.
