About this home

Unveiling Residence Two of the newly built 222 Commonwealth Avenue Residences; a collection of just three distinguished homes in the heart of Back Bay. Spacious and sweeping, this floor-through layout is ideal for an urban pied-à-terre. An open-plan kitchen and great room, anchored by a gas fireplace with original tilework, looks out onto the verdant paths of the French boulevard-style Commonwealth Avenue Mall and the neighboring ‘Quin House. Calacatta Oro countertops, Wolfe and Sub-Zero appliances, a wet bar, and a powder room with lovely herringbone tilework makes entertaining a breeze. Tucked away at the rear of the residence, a well-appointed primary suite comes complete with a dressing room, double vanity and a soaking tub. A second bedroom lies just past a full bath and a laundry closet. Residence Two includes a full-size parking space. OPEN HOUSE IS CANCELLED - THE SELLER ACCEPTED AN OFFER
