About this home
A rare treasure in the heart of Back Bay with abundant sunlight from the 12 front-facing windows overlooking the Mall. This exquisite residence sits above the tree tops with sunny views from the fifth floor with elevator access. Fully renovated kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and gas cooking. Ample closets are found throughout including in-unit laundry and the half bath has the space and plumbing to be a third full bath again. A gracious and comfortable floor plan is made from two units being joined for flexible use. Three bedrooms easily offer a home office and guest room while the master bedroom has an en suite, luxurious bath with floor to ceiling travertine for a spa-like feel. The wood-lined den and living room have a fireplace; one wood & one gas. You will enjoy panoramic City views; day or night, colorful sunsets and an unobstructed view of the Fourth of July Boston Pops Fireworks Spectacular from the spacious common roof deck.
