Back Bay of the Week: 293 Marlborough St.

This stunning 113 year-old townhouse renovated by Holland Construction is the quintessential historical residence that has made Boston one of the most legendary real estate markets in the country. While completely restored and modernized, this five-story elevator home still offers its charming vintage features and has been skillfully crafted with impeccable
design and attention to every detail.

The home offers an incredibly generous floor plan at 4,562 square feet with liberally-sized rooms and proudly presents many of its classic period features with elevated ceilings, built-ins, five fireplaces, French doors, organic fibers and incredible architecture. The parlor level includes a welcoming sun-drenched reception room and a gourmet kitchen with premier cabinetry, upgraded surfaces, stainless steel appliances, a center island breakfast bar and a charming dining area that opens into a balcony. The oversized fireplaced living room presents an elegant setting for entertaining as well as the handsome fireplaced dining room that completely envelopes its guests with natural wood lining the floor, walls and ceiling.

The master bedroom suite offers its owners a magnificent and luxurious personal retreat while the three remaining bedrooms provide an accelerated level of comfort that includes liberal dimensions as well as warming, natural sunlight. The lower level hosts a wonderful family
room with a wet bar and floor-to-ceiling built-ins and during warmer months, those informal gatherings can be brought outdoors with the amazing private roof deck that boasts incredible views of the Prudential Building and Back Bay.

Two deeded parking spaces are included with the sale of this property, but with its incredibly advantageous address within the heart of Back Bay, virtually everything from shopping, restaurants and cultural and recreational activities on right on its doorstep. Of course vehicles do bring a level of convenience to this home's residents, but honestly, once they are
home, they will likely use any excuse not to leave.
