About this home

Live large for less! Rare value in a grand Back Bay duplex with one deeded parking space and extra spaces for guests. Entertain upstairs in a showpiece dining parlor with elegant period details, including 11’ ceilings, refurbished bowfront windows overlooking the sunny side of Beacon Street, triple crown moulding, decorative fireplace with original marble, and hardwood floors. Tall custom built-in for books and storage. Well-equipped galley kitchen with stainless steel appliances, maple cabinets, and quartz countertop. Relax in twice the space downstairs, with a large bedroom and heated walk-in closet, a flexible sleep, lounge, and/or office space, and a bathroom with two vanities, an enclosed shower/tub, and linen shelf. Common laundry on same level. Great for socializing, shopping, and commuting: near restaurants, stores, Charles River Esplanade, Cambridge, and major roads. And since pets are welcome, enjoy walking your dog in one of the most desirable neighborhoods in Boston.
