Description

390 Riverway is one of Boston's most impressive condo buildings. This building, dating back to 1900, has some of the best turn-of-the-century features that condo shoppers appreciate when they're in the market for a home. The condo fee includes heat and hot water. Enjoy living in this historical gem that has one, two or three-bedroom units within the $200,000 to $3330,000 price range.

Exposed brick is one of the original features that helps add to this building's charm. High ceilings and tall windows are also part of this building's original beauty. Hardwood floors blend in with these other features for a stylish living area that you will be proud to call home. The living room has a nook that is easy to use for a computer. Recessed lighting is a newer addition that will help keep everything in your living area well-lit.

An updated kitchen and bathrooms help give your condo a fresh look, without compromising any of its charm. Your kitchen has a fairly compact design, yet has the cabinet and counter space that you need for any cooking, baking, or entertaining need. The bathroom's updates represent a nice blend of both old and new options. Floor tiles in textured brown shades match the light gold on the wall, and the updated vanity matches the mirror.

The view from the bedroom is worth looking at the first thing in the morning. Dark walls and a neutral carpet will help you avoid having very many problems with color clashes. Bedrooms in all floor plans are of an easy size to fit in the furniture that you need with minimal effort. In addition to being a spot for total relaxation when you're home, the condo's convenience extends to offering laundry facilities within the building. You'll feel pampered and appreciated when you live here.
