This $4.3 million Back Bay penthouse with views of the Charles River was not the biggest home sale of the week
Boston’s Millennium Tower was not the Millennium Tower that trended on Facebook this week, but it did have quite a large sale: One of the Downtown Crossing building’s penthouses sold for almost $8 million.
A Back Bay condo, a 36th floor Millennium Tower condo, and a Wellesley home also sold for nowhere close to that price tag, but they’re also definitely still worth a peek.
1 Franklin St., Ph 1A, Downtown Crossing, Boston
This three-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom, 3,172-square-foot Millennium Tower penthouse sold for $7,995,000 on Monday. A part of the Millennium Tower’s “Penthouse Collection,” the unit boasts some of the best views of the city via floor-to-ceiling windows in every room.
290 Beacon St., Apt. 5, Back Bay, Boston
On Tuesday, this two-floor penthouse in a Back Bay brownstone with four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and 3,341 square feet of living space sold for $4,250,000. The home features details like exposed brick, wood beams, entertaining areas, and hardwood floors, as well as killer views of the Charles River—see above.
1 Franklin St., Unit 3602, Downtown Crossing, Boston
Though not the most expensive sale in the Millennium Tower for the week, this two-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom, 1,486-square-foot unit on the 36th floor sold for $2,825,000 on Tuesday. Along with all the building amenities, the condo has a southwest exposure, meaning the views of the Boston Common and Back Bay are stunning.
158 Bristol Rd., Wellesley
On Tuesday, this single-family home in Wellesley with six bedrooms, six bathrooms, and 7,000 square feet of living space sold for $2,390,000. Built in 2005 in the Georgian Colonial style, this home has high ceilings, a library, four fireplaces, and a finished lower level.
