Classic Beacon Hill condo featuring a brand new, hard-to-find (at this price point) private roof deck with sweeping views of the city and MIT. Located in a garden-fronted building on beautiful Hancock St, this cozy & charming home has a quartz counter/ island (seats 4), tasteful backsplash, full-size appliances and the original marble pine floors, and a fireplace with its original mantel to give an entertainment focal point. Unit seems larger than its sf because no space is wasted on hallways. Good closets and some built-in shelving; laundry and a deeded storage area in the basement. Viable for owner occupants, rentals (excellent history), or as a pied a terre. Non smoking building that prohibits short term rentals;1 dog/cat allowed. Steps to MGH and Whole Foods, close to T-stations, restaurants, shopping,etc. New rubber roof, hatch for roof access, newer hot water tank, gas furnace and fire alarm system in the building. Can be bought with Unit 5F to own the entire top floor.
