About this home
A rare chance to own a smart, low-maintenance one-bedroom in historic Garrison Hall, a professionally managed Back Bay elevator building full of classic character, from the mosaic-tiled entry to the grand lobby staircase. This bright, move-in-ready fifth-floor home offers gleaming hardwood floors throughout, a sun-filled living room, and a well-proportioned bedroom with generous closet space. The updated kitchen features crisp white cabinetry, marble counters, a stainless gas range, and dishwasher, while the refreshed bath includes a full tub and shower; a gracious entry foyer adds everyday flexibility. Heat and hot water are included in the condo fee, and common laundry in the building. Tucked behind the Prudential and just off Huntington Ave, minutes to shopping, restaurants, and the South End, with the Green and Orange Lines around the corner. Northeastern, Berklee, Longwood, Symphony, and MassArt close by. An ideal footprint for a professional, a pied-a-terre, an investor, or a college student. Don't miss this iconic Back Bay address.
