    What's special

    Luxurious marble bath
    This beautiful south-facing, 22-foot-wide single-family residence is tucked away from the bustle of the city, yet ideally situated along Beacon Hill’s charming, gas-lit streets, with parking directly outside the front door and proprietorship in the coveted Annie Fields Garden. Thoughtfully renovated while preserving its historic character, this four-story townhome offers a classic and versatile layout. The chef’s kitchen opens seamlessly to a charming breakfast nook with walnut accents and an adjacent family room, creating an inviting space for everyday living. For more formal entertaining, the parlor level features a fireplaced living room and elegant wood-paneled dining room overlooking Annie Fields Garden, complemented by an adjacent butler’s pantry with wet bar. The second-floor primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with a luxurious marble bath and a spacious, sun-filled study with a gas fireplace. The top floor features three bedrooms, two full baths, and an office, with a full staircase leading to a renovated, oversized roof deck. Lush plantings and an irrigation system create a private, serene setting, an exceptional urban oasis in the heart of Beacon Hill.
