Unsurprisingly, luxury and elegance typify the homes in this area. Older remodels tend to leave at least one section partially unfinished in order to demonstrate its history; an exposed brick wall, or a vintage timber beam, are common sights in the properties built before 1900. Those built within the last few years opt for a cleaner look, with wainscoting, finished plaster ceilings, recessed lighting, and sumptuous vaulted ceilings. Many of the units have floor to ceiling glass windows along one wall in order to provide a nearly uninterrupted view of the surroundings. The bedrooms usually have multiple closets, and the master bedroom traditionally has a large bathroom with some of the most beautiful fixtures available. In some bathrooms, both a shower and a separate stand alone tub are provided in order to give the resident as many bathing options as possible. A glass basin sink mounted on a clear pane of glass next to elaborate tile backsplashes are common.

Some of the exteriors of these properties are located directly on the waterfront, which provide access to specific docks or marinas. The buildings may be large enough to have their own common lobby space, including a fitness center and a lounge. Those buildings built directly on the waterfront often have special privileges for their residents when it comes to visiting the docks. A private area for resident-only celebrations on the waterfront may be provided. Other complexes provide a private pool, hot tub, and recreation center for their residents.

How to List Property

How does one artfully encapsulate all the qualities of a home in a paragraph or less? The challenges of effectively describing a property that one has inhabited for years, perhaps even decades, to a first-time visitor is formidable but not impossible. The trick is to borrow an objective eye, a service we happily provide. By contacting us, a seller can gain access to all the latest tips and techniques in successfully listing a property, from what details to include to what photographs to take.

Most importantly, by contacting us sellers can become part of our extensive network of serious buyers and sellers. We’ve built on business on the effectiveness of matching interested parties. Instead of holding open houses that attract a crowd but no enthusiastic buyers, we’ve created a system which pairs like-minded parties. We help eliminate much of the waiting and frantic messaging that results when listings initially go public. Instead, we offer a curated service that helps both buyers and sellers find what they are looking for in a very rapid timeframe.

In addition to gathering such essential information as the year the structure was built, the total number of square feet, and the suggested list price, we can help sellers pinpoint what distinguishes their properties from others on the market. Sometimes, a seller may have a feature in their house that they take for granted, but that on the open market is considered to be highly desirable, whether it’s a skylight, a stand-alone bathtub, or energy efficient windows. We can help the seller become aware of the attributes of their property, and dramatically speed up the time between the initial listing and the close of escrow.

Geographic Location

Located east of Downtown Crossing, south of Charlestown, and north of the Waterfront, this dense section of the city is sited on Boston Harbor, and has some of the oldest continuously inhabited structures in the area. It has several publicly accessible green spaces, including the DeFilippo Playground, Lagone Park, Copp’s Hill Terrace, and Charter Street Park. Route 1A and Interstate 93 cross through this area, as do a series of public transit stops just outside its bounds.
