    What's special

    Tucked away in charming and convenient Bay Village where the Back Bay and South End meet is the perfect quintessential Boston row house featuring a well designed layout and wonderful character throughout. With 2 fireplaces, wood floors, exposed brick walls, high ceilings and 6 terrific windows, this sun-splashed upper level home will truly captivate you! It's just one of those special properties that make you feel like you're home the minute you walk in the door. The open floor plan features plenty of space for living, dining, cooking and even an office area for very crucial working from home space. Terrific extra storage, laundry and patio complete the package. Tree top views and the quiet enclave of this desirable neighborhood makes you forget that you are in the city, yet outside your door are parks, local conveniences, amenities, shops, restaurants, cafes and so much more! Enjoy all that the Back Bay and South End offer, while just steps to the Public Garden and an easy walk Downtown. The landlord's deposits are first month's rent, last month's rent and security deposit. There is a broker's fee equal to one month's rent. The tenant pays a gas bill and an electric bill for utilities. Available for September 1st
