About This Home
As of January 2024This penthouse is a fantastic find. The combination of historic charm and modern amenities offers the best of both worlds. The original wide pine flooring and exposed wood ceiling and beams give it such character. A gas fireplace surrounded by built-in bookshelves provides a cozy centerpiece for the living area. The renovated eat-in kitchen has Revere Pewter cabinetry, a tall pantry, herringbone tile backsplash, Calcutta quartz countertops & ss appliances. Dining area can fit a large table! Having a half-bath, washer/dryer, and coat closet on the first floor adds practicality and convenience. Upstairs, the two bedrooms, full bath, and loft space for additional storage offer functionality and space. Being on the top floor and south-facing, it gets plenty of sun with 2 skylights. With an exclusive oversized off-street parking in such a central location in historic Charlestown makes it a highly desirable place to live.
