About This Home

As of November 2021

Finally, your rare opportunity to own and renovate a true one-of-a-kind Beacon Hill building. Wonderfully quirky & charming, it is being offered for the 1st time in 27 years! Superb location on a quaint, cobblestoned private way on Beacon Hill’s desirable South Slope. This unique property has phenomenal design potential - bring your imagination and your favorite architect. You’ll love the gated entrance, soaring 15 ft ceilings & fabulous windows overlooking beautiful courtyards front & back. 8 Spruce Court was built during the expansion of a Beacon Street Club to be their squash court. It is currently configured as a 2 unit building. The architect we showed it to, saw the greatest potential as one space, perhaps with a fabulous master suite on the top floor. What will you turn it into? Your unique city home/pied-a-terre? Expansion space for the things you love to do? Live/work space, customized for working from home? Start imagining the unique and special space you could create here!
