About this home

Located near the top of tree-lined Hancock Street, this truly special, architect-designed, one-bedroom condo perfectly embodies the old-world romance and charm of Beacon Hill. The open-plan layout, abundance of custom-built storage, and ingenuity of design throughout make this unit feel much larger than its actual square footage, while beautiful period details, including beamed ceilings, decorative moldings and a lovely fireplace preserve its original character. Featuring an oversized peninsula perfect for working or entertaining; soft-close drawers in the kitchen, living area, and bedroom; and California Closets in the bedroom and hallway, each space has been designed for maximum utility. Tucked away in the back of the building, on the third floor, overlooking the shared courtyard, this special space feels like a fairytale and is only steps from all Beacon Hill has to offer. Perfectly, perfect in every way~
