Description

Front facing with large bay windows overlooking prime Beacon St location. The open floor plan, large kitchen and high ceilings make this condo large enough for a couple and seems bigger than its square footage suggests. Heat and Hot Water included. Elevator Building. Amazing common roof deck with Prudential views one way and Charles River the other. Similar units in the building rent very well and some have added laundry (currently in basement) and central a/c mini splits. Pet friendly.
