About This Home

As of August 2025

Located on picturesque Commonwealth Avenue between Exeter and Fairfield Streets, this sunny south-facing one-bedroom offers classic Back Bay charm with modern updates. The renovated kitchen features granite countertops, a breakfast bar, gas cooking, and a dishwasher. The spacious bedroom includes a generous closet, and hardwood floors run throughout the unit. Enjoy sweeping city views—including the Prudential and Hancock Towers—from the common roof deck. Laundry is located in the building. This fourth-floor walk-up (no elevator) is just moments from Newbury Street, the shops at the Prudential Center, top restaurants, cafes, Copley Green line and the Back Bay train station. Sorry, no pets.
