About this home
On the top two floors of a grand circa 1886 mansion by esteemed architects McKim Mead & White, this beautifully refined loft-inspired penthouse faces south on Commonwealth Avenue, opening to front/back decks overlooking the picturesque tree-lined boulevard and sweeping cityscapes. Adding to the ideal city lifestyle in the heart of Back Bay, this exceptional residence is accessible by elevator from its garage parking space. Bathed in natural light through the four large skylights and southerly exposure, the versatile open-concept living areas feature an impressive floor-to-ceiling fireplace. Sliding doors can close off the sleek open kitchen from the two-story dining area where the sculpted staircase adds visual drama. At the top of the staircase, abundant natural light bathes the loft-style open family room/office right under the skylights. The light-filled primary bedroom suite has a luxurious bath and overlooks Commonwealth Avenue from inside and outdoors on its inviting lounge deck.
