About This Home
Elevate your lifestyle with this rare penthouse residence, set within a South End–style brick Row-house on South Boston’s coveted East Side. Steps from Medal of Honor Park and a short stroll to the beach, this home offers a distinct blend of historic character and modern sophistication. Spanning two thoughtfully designed living levels, the home showcases 10'6" ceilings, original plaster moldings and stunning hardwood floors. The sun-filled living area features a gas fireplace and bay window with park views. The chef’s kitchen, appointed with quartz counters and custom cabinetry flows seamlessly onto a private oversized walk-out deck—perfect for entertaining and intimate gatherings. Upstairs, the bedrooms share a beautifully renovated bath with custom shower and radiant heat tile floors.
