About This Home

As of June 2022

Perched quite high for this neighborhood, this corner-exposure '2BR' penthouse is delightful. It faces South, East -&- North East, and as is located on the 7th floor with truly wonderful everyday views of historic Back Bay townhomes, Boston City skyline, plus the Charles River -&- Longfellow Bridge to Cambridge. While this home offers many characteristics of the by-gone era —10 foot ceilings, crown moldings, ceiling medallions, antiquated hardwood flooring, ornate fireplaces, built-in mirrors & custom tile— it is also well appointed with modern amenities such as 4-zone wall-mounted air conditioning, washer/dryer hook-up, 7 double-pane windows, plus a common elevator, additional priv storage and an enormous common roof deck with seriously stunning views. Built in 1885-1886 as the 'Hotel Royal apartments' by William Carpenter, and designed by architect Samuel D. Kelley, this 29-unit condominium association occupies a double-lot in the Back Bay at the corner of Beacon and Exeter Streets.
