Set in a classic brick bow-front with low-stoop, this sun-filled South End home is a truly special offering, highlighted by historic details, soaring 12-foot ceilings, and the kind of dramatic volume rarely found in a one-bedroom-plus layout. The elegant parlor level showcases original “wedding cake” plasterwork, a marble mantle adorns the decorative fireplace, warm wood floors, and thoughtful built-ins. The home offers approximately 960 square feet of single-floor living and a large private balcony, perfect for morning coffee or evenings at home. The kitchen renovation was beautifully designed and executed with polished quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a gas range creating a clean, modern complement to the home’s original charm. A newly renovated marble and tile bath adds a timeless finish. Additional conveniences include common storage and free common laundry. Transferrable rental garage parking across the street available, ask for details.
