The fireplace has its original marble mantel & provides an entertainment focal point. Unit seems larger than its sf because there are no hallways. Good closets, some built-in shelving in the unit; laundry and deeded storage area in the basement. Non smoking building that prohibits short term rentals but allows1 dog/cat except for "dangerous breeds." Steps to MGH and Whole Foods, close to T-stations, restaurants, shopping,etc. New rubber roof&hatch for roof access, new hot water tank, newer gas furnace and new fire alarm system in the building. Can be bought with Unit 5F (MLS #: 73489914) to own the entire top floor with 2 interconnected private roof decks
