64 Bartlett St #4

A rare opportunity to live in Boston's Spooner-Lambert House circa 1782, this Roxbury Artillery Commander-built and architect-renovated Fort Hill residence combines the character and privacy of a historic home with the conveniences of contemporary condo living. With 1,267 square feet across multiple levels, a private entrance, off-street parking, in-unit laundry, central air, basement storage, and perpetually-in-bloom gardens, the condo offers an unusually house-like experience amidst the urban amenities of Boston. Inside, centuries-old character has been conserved and showcased through a thoughtful renovation. The light-filled living room is graced by original heart-pine floors, exposed beams, and preserved 18th century wallpaper. The new kitchen features custom cabinetry, stainless-steel countertop with integrated sink, panel-front dishwasher, induction cooking, and a walk-in pantry. Wood floors and distinctive architectural details continue in the two main level bedrooms, which boast a restored fireplace and custom closets. A stone vanity, custom cabinetry, and tiled shower surround give the bathroom a bespoke feel. Atop a custom-clad 'Pear Stair', the expansive upper level offers a character-filled, flexible space for sleep, work, or play atop restored floorboards and under hand-hewn beams. A new half bathroom includes plumbing run for a potential future shower to make this a suite unto itself. The interior is conditioned by new ducted and wall-mounted mini-split heat pump units as well as baseboard heat for comfort in all seasons. Outside, a private entrance leads through the property's lush grounds featuring mature plantings, raised garden beds, and a grilling and patio area. Highland Park and John Eliot Square are just steps away as are the numerous dining, retail, and cultural offerings of Mission Hill and Nubian Square. Both Orange and Silver line trains are within 10 minute walks to offer commuting flexibility. With the roof replaced, exterior paint refreshed, and shared front hall renovated within the past five years to go along with a healthy condo reserve, you can spend your time enjoying the charms of the house and gardens through the seasons. Historic, uniquely updated, and ideally situated, this property offers something seldom found: the character of an early New England home, the outdoor space and privacy of a single-family house, and the convenience of urban condo living.
