There are Boston moments that tug at the heartstrings, and an illuminated Comm. Ave. esplanade takes top billing.
Twin rows of trees, wrapped up in twinkle lights and if we’re very lucky, buried in snow. For a front row view to this bit of Boston magic — with Newbury shopping and dining in your backyard — Unit 1 at 216 Commonwealth Avenue is for you. You’ll find yourself right in the middle of the action, between Exeter and Fairfield.
Surprisingly spacious for a one-bed, one-bath residence, the condo clocks in at more than 1,000 square feet with — get this — a private garden patio and direct-access parking with charging for electric vehicles. That alone makes for a swoon-worthy pied-a-terre but the newly renovated unit also boasts refinished hardwood floors, a sleek fireplace, quartz kitchen countertops, and high-end appliances.
The spa-like bath is a standout, enjoying heated floors, a double vanity, and a luxurious shower with intricate custom tilework — a serene escape for relaxation. Modern conveniences abound, including state-of-the-art central air conditioning, a new washer and dryer, and a water heater. A Pella door and custom windows lead to your outdoor slice of heaven, the rare outdoor oasis in the city, perfect for enjoying warm evenings or morning coffee.
The sale of the condo, on the market for $1,588,000, is represented by Collin Bray of CENTURY 21 Cityside, 617-512-1095.
