Property Description

South End living at its best! Set on the parlor level of a beautiful Boston brownstone, this charming home is filled with the character and details that make city living so special, while offering the modern comforts you want today. Soaring ceilings, oversized windows, dentil moldings, hardwood floors, and a beautiful marble fireplace create a warm, light-filled living space that feels both elegant and inviting. The well-appointed kitchen features granite countertops, island seating, rich cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances, perfect for everyday living or entertaining friends. Beautiful textured antique glass pocket doors open to a spacious bedroom with a lovely bay-window nook, a walk-in closet, and flexible space for a home office. Brand new 2025 mini-splits provide both A/C and supplemental heat, adding comfort in every season, while in-unit laundry makes everyday living easy. An ideal city home or sophisticated pied-à-terre, this residence also benefits from significant building improvements completed by the HOA in 2024/2025, including a new roof, completely new electrical service and panel, extensive exterior restoration, brick and stone repointing, wood repairs and repainting, and refreshed common areas. And then there’s the location, just moments from the South End and Back Bay’s wonderful restaurants, shops, parks, and public transportation. Classic Boston character, modern comfort, and a location you’ll love.
