Tucked along a quiet private lane in the heart of Charlestown, 8 Bolton Place feels like a hidden city retreat. This rare corner single-family offers an entire house and lot with two off-street parking spaces, a lush patio, and a layered garden that changes beautifully through the seasons. Renovated throughout in 2022, the home blends crisp modern finishes with classic Charlestown character. The open first floor features hardwood floors, custom built-ins, a renovated kitchen, French doors to the patio, and convenient first-floor laundry.
