About This Home

As of September 2022

Welcome to a bright 1bed, 1bath home on one of the most coveted streets in Back Bay. Two private entrances, a private patio, updated kitchen appliances, granite counters, and new washer/dryer in unit, this home offers the ideal, convenient city lifestyle. The open concept with large windows, high ceilings, and a gorgeous brick wall and fireplace make the space both light and airy as well as cozy. The bathroom is newly renovated top to bottom with a beautiful travertine mosaic in shower. The open concept layout is perfect for relaxing, entertaining as well as indoor/outdoor living with the patio accessed directly off the living room -- the perfect spot to sip your morning coffee, grill in the evenings and/or enjoy a relaxing drink at night. And so close to the best of Back Bay - Newbury Street, Prudential, Boston Common, and the Esplanade. Also close to Fenway, Public Garden, BU, and Northeastern. Own a piece of Boston history - this is the former home of the famed Jordan Marsh family.
