About this home

Perched above the treetops near Watertown Sq, this penthouse 3BR/2BA duplex offers a rare blend of space, comfort, and city convenience. Thoughtfully renovated, the home features a modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and gas cooking, seamlessly paired with the timeless charm of the dining room’s original built-in hutch. The expansive main level is designed for both entertaining and everyday living with generously sized rooms and multiple areas to relax, gather, or work from home. Upstairs, the private primary suite spans the entire top floor, creating a true retreat complete with a spa-inspired ensuite bath, soaking tub, and walk-in shower. Additional highlights include central air conditioning, in-unit laundry, basement storage, and a shared yard. Two off-street parking spaces, one in a garage, provide exceptional convenience. Ideally located just two blocks from the Charles River Reservation, with easy access to Cambridge, Newton and downtown Boston.
