Up here, the South End feels different. This duplex penthouse rises above the bustle, with 2 bedrooms & 2 baths thoughtfully set on separate levels, creating a sense of privacy & ease. 14 windows invite sweeping natural light throughout the home, while the open living room with a wood-burning fireplace offers striking views that remind you exactly where you are: in the heart of one of Boston’s most beloved neighborhoods. A generous 350 SF roof deck crowns the home, offering room to lounge, dine, garden, gather, or simply take in the view. Overlooking a vibrant community garden & Boston’s remarkable skyline, this is city living with true perspective in a neighborhood celebrated for its Victorian brownstones, tree-lined streets & pocket parks, acclaimed restaurants, & SoWa arts district. Moments from Toro, El Centro, & Flour Bakery + Café. A home embracing light, elevation, & a rare sense of escape. Nothing else compares for under $1000 per SF in the SE!
