City Point Condo with Expansive Rooftop Deck & Potential! Located in South Boston's desirable City Point, this corner unit offers one bedroom plus an office, one bathroom, and approximately 640 sq. ft. of living space, with strong potential to make the most of every square foot. This is one of eight units in this Victorian brick building, converted in 1987. Natural light streams throughout the unit through oversized windows across three exposures, complemented by nearly 10-foot ceilings. The living area features a natural wood-burning fireplace and space for dining. The bonus office serves as a work-from-home space, and the bedroom features a large closet and in-unit laundry capability. While the home is full of character and charm, the kitchen is dated and needs updates, offering the next owner a chance to make it their own. The common roof deck was recently renovated with new railings and Trex decking, with views of the Boston skyline and the ocean. Just minutes from Castle Island, South Boston beaches, and local favorites, this home is ready for your personal touch. Offer due by 4 pm on Monday, November 2nd.
