Description

Modern parlor-level one-bedroom in a classic South End brownstone with soaring 11.5-foot ceilings and serene private deck. Centrally located on the Back Bay/South End border, this home is filled with natural light from oversized south-facing windows and boasts beautiful hardwood floors throughout. The lofted queen-size bedroom offers a versatile office/den layout that lives larger than its footprint. The kitchen features dark stone countertops, stainless steel appliances including 5-burner gas stove and ample cabinetry. The back door opens to an expansive 180+ sqft private deck, a true extension of the living space, ideal for entertaining, outdoor dining or a quiet morning coffee. In-unit W/D, central air, keyless entry and an interactive shower spa complete the home. Pet friendly, professionally managed building with easy access to Back Bay Station, The Pru, and Copley Square.
