About this property

Historic Townhouse Condo in the center of Boston, across from the Public Garden

Facing the Public Garden in Boston's most elegant and prestigious neighborhood, Beacon Hill, our 1700 sq. ft. home, completely renovated in 2019, is central to the best Boston has to offer. Restaurants, galleries, boutiques, the Charles River and Boston Common -- all just steps away!

Enjoy Boston and live like a Bostonian in our newly renovated, sophisticated and relaxed garden duplex home. Located on Beacon Street in Beacon Hill opposite the Public Garden and Boston Common (the oldest city park in America), our apartment occupies the first two stories of a historic granite-faced 1828 Asher Benjamin townhouse. The home receives sunlight all day long and offers spectacular park and city views. It is, of course, fully air conditioned..

The main floor (Parlor level), with magnificent 11 foot ceilings and beautiful woodwork, is comprised of living room with TV and gas fireplace, as well as a brand new open plan Siematic kitchen with island and dining area. These two areas are separated by beautifully restored original pocket doors. Beyond is a powder room and a bedroom/den (sofabed) with an adjoining outdoor terrace in back.

Three bedrooms are one level down (Garden level). The main bedroom has one queen bed, two fully outfitted closets and en-suite bath with tub/shower. The second rear-facing bedroom has two twin beds and a walk in closet. In front, there is a single smaller bedroom with a full bed and outfitted closet. Off the hallway there is an additional full bathroom with a glassed in shower. The baths are fully tiled with specialty tiles from StoneSource.

Together, the bedrooms sleep 7-8 comfortably.

High speed WiFi is available throughout our home.

The Boston Experience
We visited Boston to celebrate my teen son’s birthday along with his buddy and our younger son. This was the perfect stay—many happy memories were made. The apartment is in the quintessential Boston location, an easy perch to step out and enjoy all the city has to offer. The owner is gracious and attentive and the apartment accommodations are sparkling clean and.as described. Will certainly stay here again.

Amazing townhouse in an amazing location!
This place is fantastic! My family was in town visiting colleges and sightseeing, and this townhouse was perfect for us. One morning was quite rainy, and we were able to sleep in and eat a lazy breakfast and watch TV until the skies cleared. We all had plenty of space and bathrooms, and the laundry was super helpful. This was the perfect launching spot for our adventures, and Peter was an incredibly gracious and helpful host.

Amazing location
We had so much fun in Boston and staying so close to all the places we wanted to visit was amazing and very time saving. We were able to visit something in the morning, walk back and rest a bit and then head out again. One bed was small for a couple to share but I already knew that from the pictures which represented the space very accurately. I was okay with the size because the location was so amazing.

Why they chose this property

Boston is a beautiful city. Beacon Hill is the most beautiful and livable part of Boston. Add the park view, the immediacy of the Charles River and Esplanade and access to downtown... there was not too much to think about!

What makes this property unique

Beacon Hill is the most elegant and historic neighborhood in Boston and is known as one of the finest urban neighborhoods in the United States of America. It is at the center of Boston, walking distance from every principal attraction. Next to the gorgeous city parks -- the Public Garden with its Swan Boats and famous Ducklings, the Boston Common, the Esplanade and the Charles River as well as the Hatch Shell, it is also home to Charles Street, one of the most photographed commercial streets in America. With great restaurants and bars, high-end stores, boutiques, galleries and antique shops, along with fine food and wine shops, Charles Street has it all. An evening walk through the gaslit streets of Beacon Hill is often considered a highlight of any trip to Boston. It is all at your door.

All that listed above is within a two to three minute walk from our front door.

Within a five minute walk is the world class destination shopping and restaurants of Newbury and Boylston Streets, Chinatown and the Back Bay, the State House and the Freedom Trail, Downtown Crossing and the Downtown business district.

There are three T stops within a five minute walk. There is a Hubway (city bike rental) directly across the street. But you'll primarily be walking. Everything is that close!

The famous Cheers Bar (from the classic television show) is on our block, just a hundred yards away!
