About this home

Just two blocks above vibrant Union Square, and sited on a gorgeous leafy street dotted with colorful Victorians, this first floor duplex condo offers high ceilings and well-proportioned living spaces with exposed brick and rough hewn wood, creating a dynamite blend of Victorian elegance and rustic warmth. The main level features a generous primary bedroom, living room, as well as an eat-in kitchen and bathroom, both renovated in 2015. Abundant finished space with two large rooms in the lower level offers tremendous flexibility as a home office, guest suite, makerspace, or all three! The front porch is the perfect way to meet the neighbors, while the private side patio is a hidden retreat ideal for kicking back with friends or finding your inner gardener. Located just minutes from artisan butchers, craft breweries, a climbing gym, restaurants and Green Line T station (opening in December), 77 Columbus Avenue unites Victorian residential calm with a dynamic urban lifestyle.
