Grand and gracious rooms that will take your breath away.Originally the Back Bay mansion of Nathaniel Thayer III and Pauline Revere Thayer, this 2-bedroom retains the original grandeur of Thayer's parlor floor, which they had designed by Ogden Codman, Jr. The rooms in Unit 24 exemplify his signature style of elegance and opulence. The materials for walls, floors, and ceilings were commissioned from Allard and Sons in France. Codman’s design notes for these rooms are at the Metropolitan Museum in New York. With its 12 foot high ceilings and oversized windows you can't help but fall in love with this home. Gorgeous fireplace living space, with beautiful pocket doors complete with detailing and French doors to enter the second bedroom suite. Hardwood floors thru-out. Professionally managed, common laundry (building would allow in unit laundry to be installed as well as central air if one would like).
