About This Home

As of August 2025

Magnificent and rarely available one-bedroom residence at the historic Barron Mansion on waterside Beacon Street boasting spectacular period detailing, sweeping Charles River views, elevator access, and the building’s only private deck. This French Baroque mansion was built in 1871 and was once the home of Clarence Barron, President of Dow Jones, manager of The Wall Street Journal, and founder of Barron's Magazine. Rich architectural detail defines the main living space, including a hand-carved stone fireplace set in Chelsea tiles, quadruple crown molding, exquisite wood built-ins, and graceful crescent ceilings in the kitchen. Oversized windows and soaring ceilings invite abundant natural light and frame tranquil river vistas. Ideally positioned in the heart of Back Bay just moments from the Esplanade and Newbury Street, this historic home presents a unique opportunity for refined city living with the added bonus of exclusive outdoor space. The property is being offered "as is".
