About this home

Old world charm met by modern day aesthetics is the special recipe here at 159 N Street. This detached single family is "that" special find in the city, radiating with character and style throughout while being perfectly positioned in the heart of South Boston, 159 N lends itself as the happy medium. Whether its the hustle of the city energy or the peaceful sounds of the waves crashing, 159 N is set up for the perfect sense of balance we all crave. While the thought of morning coffee on the beach, an option of a mid day kayak break, and the vivid sunsets outside your doorstep will prompt the "pro" list, it is the generous floor plan, 4 bedrooms, 3 baths, and the impressive outdoor space that allows for the win-win situation, until, in the end, regardless of the highlight you are drawn to most, it's the visions of your city home becoming the hub of all family and friend gatherings that will truly encourage the fast tracking to unpacking and planting or continuing those city roots.
