About this home

Own a piece of American history in Charlestown’s Gas Light District. This condominium is located in the Deacon John Larkin House, a Georgian-style residence dating to the 1790s. Built for patriot Deacon Larkin—whose family horse famously carried Paul Revere on his midnight ride—this rare post-Revolutionary survivor offers a unique opportunity to bring your vision to life. Includes one off-street parking space in the driveway behind the building. Ideally located near Charlestown’s shops, restaurants, and parks, with easy access to downtown Boston and public transportation. Private showings only.
