On picturesque Commonwealth Avenue, within a couple blocks of the Public Garden, this comfortably elegant residence has the sunny third-floor placement in a grand c. 1899 mansion by architects Sturgis & Brigham, introduced by an impressive lobby with inglenook fireplace and elevator. The beautiful design and prime Back Bay address contribute to the appealing lifestyle of this effortlessly livable 2-bedroom, 2-bath home, also a perfect pied-a-terre. A broad archway strikingly frames the bright bay window in the living/dining room overlooking the leafy Parisian-inspired greenway to the skyline. An elegant mirror-topped fireplace is another focal point, and detailed moldings add to the refined look. This room is easily served from the adjoining dine-in kitchen. Privately placed, the lovely primary bedroom suite captures the vista of Commonwealth Avenue, and the second bedroom suite features a fireplace. The sought-after location is near fine shopping and dining and notable city landmarks.
