2 Pelham Terrace, Boston, MA

Set quietly on a private way in the heart of the South End, 2 Pelham Terrace is a comprehensively restored and modernized single-family townhouse offering what so few city homes can: private outdoor space, off-street parking, and turnkey living without compromise. Thoughtfully renovated in 2020, the home pairs beautifully preserved historic architecture with extensive modern upgrades throughout. Four gracious levels unfold around a central staircase crowned by a skylight, drawing natural light through the heart of the home. The parlor level features elegant living and dining rooms, restored millwork, and two antique French marble fireplaces, one with a gas insert. On the garden level, a flexible den offers space for a home office, media room, or second sitting room. The beautifully appointed kitchen, with custom cabinetry and Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, opens through LaCantina folding glass doors to a private fenced garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The second floor offers a guest bedroom, full bath, and library with custom built-ins and a restored original fireplace. The third floor is dedicated to the primary suite, featuring a full bath, walk-in dressing room, and in-suite laundry. With over 2,700 square feet of beautifully maintained living space, dedicated off-street parking for two vehicles, and a private-way setting, 2 Pelham Terrace feels remarkably removed from the city while remaining moments from the South End's acclaimed restaurants, galleries, and neighborhood parks.
