About this home
Offering some of the loveliest living spaces and delightful sunlight, this spacious 4 bedroom PLUS office penthouse duplex is a Beacon Hill standout. Featuring unusually wide dimensions, the scale of this Bulfinch designed building is impressive and atypical for the Hill. Unit 3 is two expansive floors w/ nearly 2200sqft of living space, as well as a large private deck. The Southern exposure brings incredible sunlight to gorgeous, oversized rooms with high ceilings, beautiful mantels and fireplaces and warm hardwood flooring throughout. The Northern exposure, enjoyed from the kitchen and dining, overlooks the direct access private deck and Beacon Hill architecture. The curved staircase is magnificent and dramatic, and leads to 4 large bedrooms. The primary bedroom and bath overlook Mount Vernon and has generous dimensions, more spectacular sunlight, and a fireplace. 3 addt'l bedrooms are perfectly situated, as well as a shared full bath. Laundry, central air, 100% owner occupied bldg.
