An entire South End brownstone. One remarkable home. A truly distinctive opportunity in a market defined largely by condominium living, this offering presents the chance to own an entire classic bow-front brownstone on one of the South End’s most beautiful & coveted tree-lined streets. Currently configured as two meticulously renovated residences, a penthouse triplex & garden duplex, the property has been transformed to near-new construction standards, bringing together timeless architecture, tailored interiors & exceptional flexibility under one roof.

The approximately 2,518 SF penthouse triplex offers 3+ beds & 3.5 baths across three beautifully considered levels. Soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, custom millwork, gas fireplaces & refined finishes define the interiors, while a designer kitchen with custom cabinetry & high-end appliances anchors the main entertaining level.
