About This Home

As of August 2024

Suspended in a copper bridge above a cobblestone drive, this architecturally distinct two-bedroom, two-bathroom condo presents a rare piece of history. At Baker Square, once home to the country’s first chocolate factory, this modern offering boasts high ceilings, exposed brick and oversized windows facing the Neponset River. On the bridge, natural light floods into the den and adjacent second bedroom, showcasing dramatic sunrises and sunsets. The open living and dining room flows from a well-appointed kitchen with cabinet-matching appliances. The primary suite offers a soaker tub and two closets, one a walk-in. Take the elevator to your exclusive double-wide heated garage space. Baker Sq offers instant community and a suite of amenities: on-site management, indoor pool and hot tub, gym and sauna, waterfront patio, dog run, and a riverwalk onto the Neponset Trail, all just a block from the local shops of Dorchester’s Lower Mills and Milton Landing, and the Red Line trolley to Ashmont T.
