About this home
2 Deeded Parking spots and views of the Boston skyline from your private covered balcony! Designed by the famous Longfellow family, this building sits on Corey Hill, the highest point in Brighton, and retains it's original turn-of-the-century charm. In need of some updating, this sun-splashed front to back unit gets both morning & evening light. . There are gleaming maple floors under the carpets, large windows, generous closet space and a living room with faux fireplace.The unit is highlighted by a frieze which runs throughout the family room- the original frieze was first commisioned in 1812 and depicts Alexander's entry into Babylon. This frieze is a reproduction of that and has been featured in numerous art publications! This professionally managed building is pet friendly and tucked away on a quiet one way street just two blocks from the Green Line. 5 minutes to Whole Foods, CVS, restaurants & shops with a walk score of 89! There is deeded private storage in the basement.
