Only 1 flight from the sidewalk, this elusive 3 bed/2.5 bath duplex on the Parlor and one floor ABOVE is the latest South End new construction condo conversion by noted developer Mainsail Management. Parlor level with 11FT ceilings showcases custom Crown Point cabinets with Subzero/Wolf, marble counters/backsplash, 2 ovens and large island with counter seating. Gas fireplaced living and dining areas, floating modern stair with glass rail system, powder room, coat closet and direct access private rear deck with IPE floor boards and plumbed with gas/water/electricity complete this lovely floor. Up one flight you will find the king-sized primary suite, walk-in closet and en-suite bath featuring step-in shower, double sink vanity and soaking tub. Two (2) additional guest beds are serviced by a full bath with tub/shower. AC, in-unit laundry and 3 1/4 white oak floors and recessed lights a are a sampling of the additional finished touches. Still time for some customization. Famed Rutland Square, home to many single family homes and quintessential Victorian park with center fountain, offers the conveniences of Boston's premier neighborhoods and is just moments to dog parks, playgrounds as well as world class shopping and dining.
Columbus, located between Back Bay and the South End, is a residential and commercial Boston neighborhood with a broad boulevard streetscape and a strong transit spine. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Columbus Avenue and Massachusetts Avenue crossroads, where cafes, small restaurants, and storefront services line the sidewalks under steady foot traffic. Community pillars include Symphony Hall, the Huntington Theatre Company, and the Boston Center for the Arts. Brick rowhouses and mid-rise buildings frame tree-lined blocks that shift quickly into cultural corridors. The Southwest Corridor Park threads green space alongside the Orange Line, linking commutes with running and biking paths. Restaurant rows along Tremont Street and Columbus Avenue keep the evenings active without feeling flashy.
