About this home

This truly unique, oversized 2 bed, 2.5 bath home offers exceptional scale, flexibility, natural light, and amenities rarely found in a South Boston two-bedroom. Perfectly positioned to enjoy the best of both the east and west sides, the home offers an abundance of space and thoughtful design throughout. Expansive bay windows flood the home with natural light, while soaring ceilings, hardwood floors, central A/C, and a gas fireplace create an inviting living space. The updated modern kitchen features sleek finishes and counter seating for four. The primary bedroom offers an impressive amount of space, a large walk-in closet, and a luxurious ensuite bath with double vanity, spa-inspired shower, and separate soaking tub. The secondary bedroom is perfectly suited for guests, a home office, or nursery, with its own full bath conveniently located just next door. In-unit laundry adds everyday convenience to the main level. Approximately 700 square feet of additional bonus space below provides an incredible extension of the home, featuring an additional half bath, space for a gym, office nook, media room, and giant storage room—the ultimate setup for entertaining, working from home, or relaxing. Ideally located in the heart of South Boston with easy access to the neighborhood’s best restaurants, shops, and amenities, plus convenient proximity to the Red Line, MBTA bus routes, Thomas Park, and everything both the east and west sides have to offer.
