Located on a picturesque tree-lined street on the Flat of the Hill, this 1914 townhouse spans 5,194 square feet, offering four bedrooms, five and a half bathrooms and two private outdoor spaces. The main floor opens with a gracious foyer leading to an elegant dining room. One level below, the garden floor unfolds around a generous kitchen, dining area, and family room, all opening directly to a private brick patio—a rare, quiet outdoor retreat in the heart of the city. Above the main floor, the house reveals one of its most remarkable spaces: a double-height grand living room/library, with an open balcony on the level above overlooking the room. The scale is extraordinary, creating a centerpiece for both quiet afternoons and elegant entertaining. The fourth floor holds two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The fifth is anchored by the primary suite, with a walk-in closet and elegant bath, and an additional bedroom at the opposite end of the hall. A private roof deck crowns the residence with unobstructed 360-degree views across Boston. Not to be missed!
ADU Potential
Massachusetts allows one accessory dwelling unit by right in single-family zoning districts statewide (M.G.L. c. 40A §3; 760 CMR 71.00, effective Feb 2025). Estimated maximum ADU size for this property: 900 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 5,194 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 1,235 sq ft.
Based on listing data, which indicates the property type — not the zoning district. Local dimensional, septic (Title 5), and historic-district requirements still apply. Not legal advice — verify with the municipality.
Estimates — not financial advice
These figures are illustrative estimates for informational purposes only — not an appraisal, valuation, or guarantee of rent, income, or returns, and not financial, tax, or investment advice. Rent is either the figure reported on the MLS listing — in-place rent that may differ from market and is not verified against the actual leases — or, where the listing reports none, an estimate from HUD Small Area Fair Market Rents, a government benchmark that may differ from actual market rent. Each figure is labelled with its source. Cap rate, NOI, and returns depend on the assumptions shown, which you can change. MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date. Verify all figures independently and consult your own financial, tax, and legal advisors before making any investment decision.
