Absolute showpiece, upper floor home on Beacon Hill's revered South Slope. Completely rebuilt from the brick inwards, no details have been overlooked. From gorgeous views down Chestnut Street, to glimpses of the Boston Common, State House and charming Beacon Hill backyards, this home does not disappoint from any angle. The space works best as a one bedroom PLUS guest room or study, however the second bedroom is certainly large enough to stand up to regular use. High ceilings throughout, four zones of efficient, ducted central air-conditioning, a lovely gas fireplace and incredible sunlight make the home pleasant throughout the year.
