About the host
Hosted by Victor Oppenheimer
I have owned the Cambridge property for around forty years. During that time I have taught at the Harvard Graduate School of Education, run a successful software company, studied and taught yoga around the world and been the proud dad of my two sons.
I spend the winter months in Cambridge and the warm summers on a Maine lake.

What makes this property unique
I love the house's design. I am told that the design was originally created by its first occupant, an emissary from France to the USA. I also delight in its location and its expansive and private back yard and decks.
