About This Home

As of September 2014

Picture Perfect Penthouse Studio w/ Panoramic views are featured here @ "The Breakers". Nahant Reservation, Lynn Shore Reservation and the Boston Skyline, will outline your eye's perspective of what you'll see...direct ocean views. What beautiful summer breezes up here, yet seller says this unit is "warm as toast" in the winter & has only turned heat on a few times in 10 yrs. Elaborate finishes & Victorian ornamentation adorn this majestic building. Elegant rose-colored stairs w/brass railings welcome you home to extreme quiet living. This unit features updated galley kitchen with room for table and 4+ chairs, a combination China- cabinet/desk with appliance garage, remains with the unit. A hidden Murphy bed makes entertainment very easy when tucked away....a cool mint green room makes sleeping easy. Kitchen and bath feature tile floors. Just a "stones throw" away from commuter rail to all outlying areas (w/parking) + bus service to suburbs or take the Ferry from Lynn to Boston.
