Overview

The property is a mixed-use building configured as four residential units over retail space. The retail level includes a premier floor-through storefront space, and the residential mix consists of two 2-bedroom/1-bath units and two 1-bedroom/1-bath units. The building also has a large unfinished basement with windows and high ceilings, which increases overall usable massing and can support additional storage or potential accessory use depending on buyer requirements.

The building is located on High Street in Boston’s Charlestown, described as being steps from the Monument and steps to Thompson Square. It sits on a historic block, with a standout storefront format noted for its character and prominent windowed presence.

This asset is well suited for investors or developers seeking a mixed-use structure with both residential income components and retail frontage in a single ownership. The combination of multiple apartment layouts and a large, floor-through retail space may appeal to operators looking for a diversified income stream within one building, while the basement’s size and windowed condition offer an additional area to consider for supplemental use.
