About this home
Live in Boston with room to breathe. Set high on Jones Hill in one of Dorchester’s most vibrant, neighborly pockets, this sun-filled, 4-bed penthouse duplex offers the space, light, outdoor living, and two off-street parking spots. Enjoy Boston skyline views, three private outdoor spaces and a quiet, leafy setting just moments from Savin Hill. Inside, the home spans the top two levels of a stately historic residence, with a gas fireplace, a private deck off the living room, and a second deck off the kitchen for morning coffee, dinner outside, or unwinding at the end of the day. Two bedrooms and a full bath sit on the main level. Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a retreat, with its own skyline-facing deck, adjoining flex space, and separate fourth bedroom. Close to the Red Line, local restaurants, parks, a brand-new neighborhood playground, this home delivers the best of city living with the warmth of a real neighborhood.
