Opportunity knocks. If you're familiar with the Vendome, you'll appreciate how rare a beautifully laid out and maintained studio on the 5th floor overlooking the Commonwealth Ave Mall comes available. Arguably the best location in all of Boston -- only a hop, skip and a jump to Newbury Street and all of the City's finest offerings. Wine & dine at nearby restaurants, take a stroll in the Boston Common, or exercise on the Charles River Esplanade. The unit was freshly painted and features high ceilings, an oversized arched window, Brazilian cherry hardwood floors, central air conditioning, a built-in desk, and generous closet space. Based on the uniqueness of the building and its Back Bay location, this property has untapped potential and presents an opportunity for adding personal touch or could be perfect pied-a-terre. Check it out.
