A rare find in the heart of South Boston. This sun-drenched 2BD/2BA lives large, with an open-concept layout and character you don't often see at this price point. High ceilings, recessed lighting, and a corner gas fireplace anchor the living room, where a decorative inlaid border frames the floor. Brazilian cherry hardwood, wainscoting, and crown molding carry throughout. The kitchen opens to a breakfast bar and a separate dining nook, and glass sliders off the living room lead out to a spacious private deck. The front-facing primary suite catches natural light all day and offers double closets, generous storage, and an en-suite bath with a glass-enclosed shower. The second bedroom is served by a full bath with a whirlpool soaking tub. Central A/C, private storage unit in the basement and in-unit laundry make everyday living easy. All of this is a short distance from the restaurants and shops along East Broadway and the waterfront at Castle Island, with a quick ride into the Seaport and downtown.
