While you shouldn’t base large, life-altering purchases like real estate because your future home is adjacent to a bakery, it certainly doesn’t hurt that Unit 7 at 312 Shawmut Avenue sits above the South End Buttery.
And if that’s not compelling enough, the bay windows of this quintessentially South End penthouse also overlook Union Park. Still not impressed? There’s a private roof deck.
The three-bedroom, two-bath home offers a coveted blend of sophisticated living and historic character, with sweeping views of one of the city’s most beloved neighborhoods. Inside, an open-concept layout welcomes you with a beautifully renovated kitchen outfitted with quartz counters, sleek cabinetry, and a breakfast bar that flows into the living area, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace.
Down the hall, two spacious bedrooms offer ample flexibility, including one with a private south-facing balcony — perfect for morning coffee or a nightcap. Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a true retreat, complete with a walk-in closet and a luxurious, spa-inspired bath. A bonus living space on the upper level features the original barrel windows, a second wood-burning fireplace, built-in shelving, and a wet bar, setting the stage for cozy nights or elegant entertaining. Just up the stairs, the private roof deck awaits with panoramic skyline views, ideal for summer gatherings or quiet moments above the city bustle.
Additional conveniences include mini-split A/C, in-unit laundry, and the option for garage rental parking nearby. Open house hours are Saturday May 10 from 1 p.m. to 2:30 p.m.
The sale of the condo, on the market for $1,875,000, is represented by the Strobeck Antonell Bull Group with Compass.
