Sun-drenched and spacious, this large one-bedroom sits on the sunny side of the building, filling the main living space with natural light for most of the day. The unit boasts solid oak floors, a beautiful modern kitchen and bath, more closets than you’ll know what to do with, a private balcony, and one parking space located in the garage beneath the building. Designed by architect Edward Steffian in a classic International Style, Kenmore Tower is both modern and timeless. The building's common areas are elegant, inviting, and include 24 hour concierge and a seasonal outdoor swimming pool/jacuzzi. This is a perfect home location for city lovers as well as a great investment opportunity. A rare combination of light, location, and space in the heart of the city.
Kenmore, located between Back Bay and Fenway, is a transit-oriented and entertainment-focused Boston neighborhood with a landmark ballpark edge and a riverfront parkway. Kenmore Square at Commonwealth Avenue and Brookline Avenue concentrates the neighborhood’s tempo, where late-night bites, marquee lights, and storefronts spill into the sidewalks. The Citgo sign and the Kenmore Square landmark sign frame a streetscape of brick mid-rises, classic Boston rowhouses, and campus-era buildings. Fenway Park sets the seasonal rhythm, while the House of Blues anchors live music nights. The Charles River Esplanade and the Emerald Necklace paths shape daily routes on foot and by bike.
