Originally built in 1904 and once the primary showroom of PP Caproni & Bro.—the world-renowned studio trusted by museums from the Louvre to the Vatican—this boutique, professionally managed association of just nine homes offers a rare blend of privacy and architectural significance.

If you’ve been waiting for a South End home with room to grow, this is the one to run—not walk—to see. Available for the first time in 23 years since it was custom-built, the residence lives like a single-family home with a dramatic, larger-than-life floor plan flooded with soft northern light.

Main Level – Volume, Warmth & Architectural Drama
• A soaring 14-foot living room anchored by exposed, “old-growth” chestnut beams—impossible to replicate today
• Expansive entertaining space ideal for art, oversized furniture, and gatherings
• Generous wall space and scale ideal for art collections, larger furnishings and effortless entertaining

Entry Level – Dining Room or Work from Home Space / Potential Third Bedroom / Kitchen
• Top-tier kitchen with Sub-Zero refrigeration, brand-new Bosch five-burner gas cooktop, Bosch double wall ovens, brand-new Bosch dishwasher, and LG’s industry-leading one-piece duplex washer/dryer; Half Bathroom off of Kitchen has Washer/Dryer.
• Large Dining Room near Kitchen with exposed brick wall may also be used a home office or be walled off to be a third bedroom.
• Thanks to the mezzanined living room, you will love the approximately 200 square feet of clean and easily accessible storage space (crawlspace) for dozens of boxes, skis, luggage, etc.

Upper Level – A Primary Suite with Purpose
The entire top floor is devoted to a serene primary suite with:
• Two identical custom walk-in closets
• A spa-inspired bath featuring hand-rubbed Pennsylvania cherry cabinetry, fossilized French limestone floors, a wall-mounted Gerberit toilet, and a large shower with five water sources

Lower Level – Comfort, Privacy & Flexibility
• A welcoming guest bedroom with its own private entrance
• En-suite bath trimmed in rare yellow onyx stone with a second wall-mounted toilet
• Tremendous flexibility for guests or extended family

Parking
One full-size gated parking space is included, and a second full-size space is available for just $35,000—keeping your spouse, roommate, or guests off the hunt for street parking.

The building has a generously sized common deck on the roof of the rear addition to the building, with a large elm tree offering a wonderful canopy of shade and color in three of the seasons. There is a locked common storage room for your bicycle(s), on a first-come, first-served basis.

This is a genuinely special offering: a move-in-ready, architecturally rich home with the scale and spirit of a single-family, wrapped in South End history and delivered with the thoughtful updates today’s buyers want.
