Description

205 West Newton Street is one of the best condo choices you'll find in Boston in the $1 million range. The beautiful brownstone duplex dates back to 1865 and is that perfect mixture of both old and new. You have two deeded parking spaces, as well as a private patio with a wooden fence. This patio will quickly become one of your favorite outdoor spaces, and there are a lot of container gardening possibilities available.

At street level, you'll find a front entryway that leads to two bedrooms. Both of these rooms have full baths that are en-suite for greater convenience. Closets in both bedrooms are California-style, providing one of the biggest amounts of space available for any closet. A spacious hallway provides a connection between the bedrooms and has possibilities for decorating and furnishing that you wouldn't have thought of in a smaller location.

You'll love the open plan that makes up the kitchen, dining and living areas at the garden level. All of the appliances in the kitchen use the top brands. Some of the features that appeal to prospective homeowners include a double convection oven, convection microwave, and a dishwasher with double drawers. Cherry cabinets and granite counters go very nicely together. One of the top things about this kitchen is the amount of space that rivals anything that you would find elsewhere.

The living area features a beautiful fireplace, tall windows, recessed lighting, and a TV wall mount over the fireplace. One thing that will come in handy in the dining area is the vast amount of space that it offers, complete with hardwood floors that are easy to keep clean. The area between the living and dining rooms is where you'll find the stairs going up to the next level. Take advantage of a washer and dryer on this level, as well as a half bath.
