About This Home

As of August 2020

Built c1850 and extensively renovated throughout, 70 Neal Street is an architectural gem in the historic Western Promenade neighborhood. Three levels of light-filled rooms embrace a nod to the past while enjoying the modern amenities of today. A gracious foyer opens to high ceilings, inlaid floors and a period staircase. The first floor includes a bright living room with coffered ceiling, leading through pocket doors to a formal dining room complete with a fireplace and built-ins. A custom chef's kitchen with breakfast bar, gas range and plenty of storage and a first-floor ensuite bedroom round out the first floor. Front and back staircases marry the first and second levels. The second floor master suite offers a separate sitting room with fireplace, a fabulous dressing room with built-ins and laundry, and a bath with double vanity and separate tub. An additional guest room with exposed brick and balcony, and a cozy study finish the second floor. The spacious third floor can serve many purposes - from nanny quarters to a guest suite - and include a kitchen, bedroom, full bath and living room. A private patio and rare two-car garage complete this exceptional property.
