About this home

Welcome to 159 West Third Street, Unit 2, a beautifully renovated two-bedroom, two-bathroom condo in a charming South Boston brownstone. Tucked on a quiet residential street yet just a 5-minute walk to the Broadway T stop and 10 minutes to the Seaport District, this home offers the best of both worlds. Original exposed brick and sun-drenched bay windows anchor the living space, and a cozy gas fireplace creates a warmth and character that can't be replicated. The open-concept layout features quartz marble bathrooms, a granite and stainless chef's kitchen, hardwood floors, soaring 10 ft+ ceilings, and custom California closets in both bedrooms. Private rear deck, brand new in-unit laundry, ample built-in storage, and a private storage room conveniently located in the basement. Low HOA covers water, sewer, insurance, and exterior maintenance.
