About this home
Great investment opportunity in the heart of Back Bay. Set within a traditional Back Bay brownstone, this charming studio features soaring 12-foot ceilings, rich ebony wood floors and oversized south-facing windows. Period details and a beautiful marble fireplace add architectural character and reflect the timeless appeal of this historic neighborhood. The recently renovated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a dishwasher and modern finishes, complemented by an updated bathroom. The spacious, flexible layout allows for distinct living, sleeping and work-from-home areas, while a generously sized walk-in closet provides exceptional storage. Ideally situated just blocks from the Public Garden, Beacon Hill, Newbury Street and the Esplanade, with restaurants, shops and the Green Line all close by. With flexible lease terms, this is an appealing option for buyers seeking a long-term Back Bay investment. Classic character, modern updates and an exceptional location come together in one of Boston’s most desirable neighborhoods.
