About This Home

As of May 2017

Designed & built in 1879 for a textile manufacturer & merchant, this sunny-side home retains the historic charm unique to a Back Bay mansion. Once used as the entertaining parlor & dining room of a single family home, these rooms showcase magnificent detail in their moldings, 3 fireplaces, mantles, & medallions with intricacies that must be seen in person. The updated eat- in kitchen is flanked by a grand living room (the former parlor) overlooking The Comm Ave Mall while an impressively sized master bedroom (former dining room)with gold detailed fireplace & coffered ceiling graces the rear of the unit. A 2nd room, ideal for office or nursery, resides next to the master. A prestigious address for a very special home offering easy access to Beacon Hill, Back Bay, The Financial District, The Public Garden, The Boston Common, The Charles River, & more. New heating system being installed. Small, self-managed, association. Pet-friendly with trustee approval.
