East Boston is the latest place that everyone wants to call
home. This building in particular has changed how the urban
dweller feels about this historical, but overlooked neighborhood
in the Boston Real Estate Scene. Until now, East Boston has
always been associated with the airport and not much else,
but times are certainly changing. The Porter 156 development
is the beginning of a whole new place. Its' convenience to
downtown is remarkable with less than a five minute walk to
the subway station and two stops to the Financial District.
The Sumner Tunnel connects you with every major highway and
is a mere thirty cents for East Boston residents. The airport
is a quick walk as well allowing travelers the ideal situation
and no more expensive taxi rides. With all of these conveniences,
it was only a matter of time before East Boston was on the
map. From both an owner occupant and investment stand point,
this property yields that special opportunity.
A 40 acre mulit-million dollar park is currently being
built directly behind this newly developed building and
so the views of the green space will be stunning by summer.
It will serve as the backyard for this property and will
be ideal for dog-walking, relaxing or virtually any outdoor
activity. With most loft buildings being located in a more
industrial neighborhood, Porter 156 has the advantage of
being situated in a residential neighborhood with numerous
restaurants and conveniences very close by. The community
that has already been established in just a few short months
within the building is amazing and is a great indication
of how the building will be cared for in years to come.
With such a strong association already established, the
advocacy for more neighborhood development should bring
great change for residents and a promising future for East
Boston real estate.
The open layout of this unit provides
flexibility and allows each person the opportunity to create
the space that works best for them. It can be left open
for traditional loft living or walls/dividers can be created
to differentiate the space and provide privacy. The mezzanine
level is perfect for creating a raised sleeping area, additional
storage or an entire second level in the home creating two
levels of living space. The options are endless and the
unit is raw enough that you can use your own creativity
and imagination to make the space truly yours.
The kitchen is designed to be simple yet very appealing. The
combination of the white cabinetry and the stainless steel
countertops are striking. The stainless steel appliances include
a dishwasher, microwave, refridgerator/freezer and gas stove
and completes the overall contemporary look of the loft. If
someone wants to have the kitchen be simply utilitarian, it
can remain removed and out of the way of the living space.
If someone wants to incorporate the kitchen into the living
area and connect the two with an island or eating area, then
the space becomes perfect for entertaining. Again the space
can be as unique as you and accomodate your tastes and needs.
It is so nice to have the kitchen work for you instead of
having restictions which require you to adapt to the space.
What a luxury.
The features of the loft that complete the space are gorgeous
bamboo floors and fantastic windows that not only provide
views of the park, but great sunlight all day. The 14 foot
ceilings are expansive and remind you of the interesting architecture
of an early 1900's factory. It is really a great mix of the
old and the new making the space truly unique.
