Beacon Hill's 72 Pinckney Street is a sought-after condo due to its prime location near Charles Street and iconic brownstone design. Despite being smaller than the Dover property, it boasts high ceilings, an eat-in kitchen, and a spa-like primary bathroom. Natural light pours in through the living area, and built-in cabinets add character to the lower-level family room.
In contrast, the Dover home offers more space, family-friendly amenities, and proximity to excellent schools. Its spacious chef's kitchen, back deck, and walkout guest suite make it an ideal choice for those seeking a suburban lifestyle. However, being in the city is a unique treasure that explains why both properties sold quickly.
