By the tree-lined Esplanade and Charles River, where the Public Garden is just a couple blocks away, this floor-through residence sits on Beacon Street’s sunny south-facing side in a graceful brownstone-and-brick building featuring a Spanish-inspired reception room with fireplace as a welcoming arrival space. Providing a comfortable layout, also making this a wonderful pied-a-terre, this Back Bay home benefits from having direct access from the elevator that leads to its deeded tandem parking space as well. Brightened by an expansive bow window framing a view of the Esplanade and river, the beautiful great room rises to a 14±-foot hewn-beam ceiling above the artisan-tiled floor, and has a fireplace as an inviting focal point. The convenient open kitchen adjoins. Overlooking Beacon Street through a striking oriel window, the light-filled, hardwood-floored bedroom is set off by a gently arcing ceiling and features a fireplace. There is upper-level storage plus separate basement storage.
