Freshly Renovated Southie Two-Bed: Roof Deck, Brand-New Kitchen, $2,250/month
This one just price-dropped its way into Deal status.
It’s been completely renovated – high-end kitchen, re-done floors, new fixtures – and has easy access to a common roof deck with amazing city views. But when it hit the market less than two weeks ago at $2,450, it didn’t get any bites.
Now the owner is throwing the renter a bone by dropping the price a cool $200/month. Advantage: renter.
The Apartment
The beautiful new kitchen is this unit’s focal point, as it connects all the other rooms in the apartment. And this isn’t a run-of-the-mill kitchen renovation, either: in addition to the new stainless-steel appliances and granite counters, the owner installed beautiful maple cabinets, lightly colored ceramic flooring, and custom-tiled backsplashes.
It’s a second-floor unit that takes in sun from the east and the north, so both bedrooms get lots of natural light. Better still, both bedrooms feature a huge, walk-in closet, which makes this a perfect roommate setup.
An office niche lies off the living room, which transitions smoothly into the kitchen. The bathroom has an updated vanity and ceramic tiling that matches the kitchen floor.
There’s laundry on-site and – oh yeah! – a roof deck just one flight up. It’s common to the building but is only shared by two other neighbors. The entire Boston skyline is directly visible and unobstructed (even while seated), making it the spot to be when the weather’s cooperating.
The Price
$2,250/month (down from $2,450)
The Up-Front Costs
First, a full-month’s security deposit and a full-month’s broker fee.
The Location
It’s right on K Street, just two blocks away from East Broadway. And, really, you couldn’t pick a more convenient part of East Broadway to be near. It’s where the Stop & Shop is, the Rite Aid, a 7-Eleven, and bus stops for the 7 (Financial District), 9 (Copley), and 10 (South Bay). Not to mention popular bar/restaurants like The Playwright and Boston Beer Garden.
What’s also unique about this spot is that, because it’s on the northern side of East Broadway, you’re only a one-mile walk away from both the Broadway T and the Seaport waterfront. 
So no matter what, you’ll always have some car-free options if you need to get around.
