Southie condo a winning combo
Roomy, pet-friendly home has parking, private deck
This is not your average South Boston condo.
Buyers looking to make the move into Southie who are used to seeing the same tried-and-true triple decker conversions are going to love Unit 1 at 694 East 5th St.,apetfriendly condo that lives like a townhouse in the heart of the action near the beach, fun dining options and public transportation.
Plus, the 1,710-square-foot condo comes complete with Southie’s real currency: a pair of dedicated offstreet parking spots.
If it’s all those little things that make a good home into a great one, we’ll start with the private entrance (no more cramped vestibules) that opens into an immaculate living area.
And what a living area! Boasting two seating areas as well as a dining space, the main level enjoys what’s tantamount to a double living room — almost unheard of in this part of town.
The inviting layout is only made better by the fireplace, bookended by built-ins.
A bright kitchen with an island and tons of storage extends from the dining area which could easily host a table for a dozen guests.
From there, sunny sliders reveal a private deck for lounging and entertaining.
A wide staircase takes you down to the garden level which houses three bedrooms, including a comfortable master with en-suite bath, big windows and access to a covered patio.
Bonus: Because it’s in the rear of the home, it’s quiet and private.
The sale of the home, new to market at $1,275,000, is represented by Tia Zaferakis with Jack Conway Cityside, 617-699-6268.
Private showings are available by appointment.
