About This Property

Rare opportunity to own a single family home in the highly desirable east side of South Boston. This standalone home was completely renovated in 2013 and has been meticulously maintained by the current owners. With over 2100 s/ft of living space as well as a private patio and composite deck, there is plenty of entertaining space both inside and out. The open first floor features a sun-filled living room w/built-in storage that leads to a gorgeous dining room and a modern, fully updated kitchen with adjacent powder room and direct access to the deck. The 2nd floor includes the master bedroom complete with large walk-in closet, a stunning bath with double sinks and walk-in shower, in addition to a sizable second bedroom with en suite bath. The third floor can be used as a bedroom, office or playroom and has a separate laundry room as well. The finished lower level includes the fourth bedroom as well as the third full bath and a large family room that exits to the lower patio area. Just one block off East Broadway and L Street, close to the #9 and #7 routes, and one mile to the Seaport, this location cannot be beat.

The manager has listed the unit size as 2120 square feet.
