Available for the first time in 21 years, this stunning two level loft was hand picked by the original developer and so of course is simply one of the best you'll find at the desirable Porter 156 community. The dazzling city views are wonderful during the day and even more spectacular at night. With terrific open space, 18 foot ceilings, a wall of windows and brilliant architectural details, you already feel at home the minute you walk in the door. Add to that the multi-level sleeping space with full height ceilings, exceptional storage and a perfect expansion possibility for a 2nd bath, an in-home office, sitting area and additional closet and storage space. With an incredible layout and contemporary style, all we can say is WOW! Enjoy the sunny southwest exposure, in-unit laundry, garage parking and sprawling roof deck and roof top room. There have been some recent improvements, including a brand new air-conditioning system, which adds incredible value. Located in an elevator building that is well managed and looks as fresh and pristine as the day the doors opened, Porter 156 is one of the premiere loft residences in the city in thriving and convenient East Boston, steps to the T, Airport, Tunnels, Memorial Park, blocks to the new and exciting Waterfront and just minutes to Downtown. And at this price, a wonderful value too for city living!
