About this home

Hidden from plain sight. Set on a sleepy side street in Avon Hill, this handsome David Aposhian top-floor duplex is tucked away, surrounded by a leafy shared courtyard. Open and airy, it favors light, warmth, and quiet - filled with honey-toned hardwood, wood-trimmed windows, and cozy corners. The living room anchors it all: a wood-burning fireplace with green marble surround, soaring ceilings, and direct access to a private patio below. A renovated kitchen, bedroom and full bath, and a flex room with French doors - office, den, guest room - round out the main level. Upstairs, the primary suite is a genuine retreat: vaulted ceilings, skylights, a spacious walk-in closet, and a private roof deck all to itself. In-unit laundry, mini-splits and garage parking seal the deal. Blocks to Porter and Harvard Squares, with transit, shops, restaurants, and bookstores just outside your door.
