This unit is just two blocks from the Charles River walking bridge, shopping on Newbury St, and the picturesque Boston Public Garden. This oversized corner unit designed by architects Sturgis and Brigham, has much to offer! Updates include: kitchen with stainless steel and granite; bathroom with marble, Groehe faucets and glass enclosure; a walk-in closet outfitted with California Closet organization system; new full-sized windows and treatments; new GE refrigerator; and built-in cabinetry with window seat. Classic Back Bay charm is there too! Distinctive High Gothic Revival architecture detail can be found throughout the property. If that weren't enough, add high owner occupancy in the building, pet-friendly, bike storage, a delightful common garden, and industrial sized laundry machines right on the same level. Isn't this an easy decision?
