About this home

Nestled in the heart of Porter Square, this lofted 3-bedroom townhome offers a sophisticated blend of function and style. The open, flexible layout has ample room for cooking, eating, entertaining, and working.

Architecturally captivating, the dramatic staircase leads to the second floor, with a primary bedroom with a Juliette balcony; walk-in closet; and a crisp ensuite bath, as well as a second bedroom and another full bathroom. Venture up a few more steps to the roof deck - perfect for star-gazing or soaking up the sun. Amenities are bountiful! Large storage space, in-unit W+D, exclusive two-car parking, new heating and central air conditioning, and recently replaced roof and siding - nothing to do here but move in! Located one block from the bustle of Porter Square's Red Line T, restaurants, cafés, wine shops, and gyms.
