Beacon Hill Roofdeck Live

Hello, Boston!

I’m coming to you live from my favorite roof deck in Beacon Hill, enjoying the hospitality of Goutam Jois, a local attorney and member of the mayor’s 1 in 3 Advisory Council.

As a fashionable man-about-town, he’s decided to give me some of his own thoughts on a few local properties that have been on the market for over 80 days.  Perhaps his insights will be a bit sharper than mine.

80 Mt. Vernon St. #8
Beacon Hill, MA 02108
2 Bed, 1 Bath
704 sq. ft.
$849,000
Goutam: “Plus: it’s near La La Rokh. IDK, though. Nice roofdeck, but I don’t know what the view would be. Pro, good space, but second bedroom is an office; for the kid’s crib, at best.”

8 Lindall Pl #1
Beacon Hill, MA 02114
1 Bed, 1 Bath
704 sq. ft.
$349,900
Goutam: “Pro: good price for square foot, pro: good size for a one bed. Con: it’s in the 02114 Beacon Hill, not the 02108 Beacon Hill. That and it’s right under the T tracks.”

36 W Cedar St
Beacon Hill, MA 02108  
3 Beds, 3.5 Baths
3,317 sq. ft.
$3,249,000
Goutam: “Pro: if you want flowers for your window box, it’s near the florist without going to Charles or Cambridge Street. Con: If you like your third child [chair in the corner would be for punishment -ed.], or don’t like crappy dining rooms, you might want a different place”
