Stunning floor-through downtown condo with direct-to-unit elevator access, directly adjacent to the Common. First time on the market since 2008, and opportunities like this in Downtown Crossing are rare! Open floor plan that fills with natural light uncommon for city living. Hardwood floors, above-standard height ceilings, and the feeling of a large flowing space from the moment the elevator opens into your home. Connected living and kitchen with breakfast bar, cherry cabinetry and granite countertops. Primary suite with en-suite bath and jacuzzi tub. Everything has been done. HVAC redone in 2020, laundry new in 2024, roof just completed with a warranty. No deferred maintenance, no assessments on the horizon. Low HOA with your own HVAC and water heater so you control your costs. Six units, strong owner-occupancy, minimal rental restrictions. Primary residence, pied-a-terre, or investment. This one delivers on all three, with direct access to everything Boston!
