About this home
A Penthouse in the Sky. Welcome to your private oasis in Davis Square. This one-of-a-kind unit at the sought after Davis Lofts community offers the ultimate indoor-outdoor lifestyle, surrounded on three sides by approx. 1,000 SF of newly designed outdoor space. Reimagined with lush greenery, custom planters, and built-in seating, the multiple terraces offers space for lounging, dining, or yoga, creating a tranquil retreat and quiet escape from the urban bustle below. Inside, find a modern open layout featuring a stunning kitchen with soapstone counters & high-end appliances, and a spa-like bath w/ soaking tub and steam shower. Two garage-style doors open to the decks for a light-filled cross breeze flowing through your home. This unit includes automated blinds, A/C, radiant heat flooring, and deeded garage parking. Close proximity to the Minuteman Path, Red Line, and all Davis Square has to offer. This is truly a penthouse escape: peaceful, quiet, and unlike anything else in the city.
