The primary bedroom is large enough to accommodate a king-size bed, ample closets, and has three large windows, letting in natural light. The home has been completely repainted and impeccably maintained.

Beacon Hill is a historic neighborhood with a distinguished ambiance, situated between Boston Common and the Esplanade. Its golden glow is derived from the State House dome, casting a warm light on its brick homes and cobblestone walkways. Literary icons like Louisa May Alcott and Robert Frost once called Beacon Hill home, and their literary presence is still felt today. While the area is peaceful, residents have easy access to Boston's bustling Theater District and Back Bay's bar scene and shopping. The housing stock is predominantly historic row houses, brownstones, and single-family homes, some of which offer lovely back gardens and roof decks with breathtaking views of Boston Common and the Charles River. The romantic, lamp-lit cobblestone streets give Beacon Hill a charming old-world feel.
