The epitome of SOWA, take the elevator up to this ALCOVE studio (easily converted to a 1 bed) at the Dover Lofts. With a sunny, southern exposure, soaring ceilings and a quiet courtyard view this condo has an airy feel and hip vibe. Stylish polished concrete floors run throughout the spacious condo's open floor plan with clearly defined area for dining as well as a generous living room accented by a Juliet balcony. The kitchen island features granite countertops and anchors the cooking space at the center of the home. A tiled bathroom is tucked privately away. In-unit laundry adds to easy living as does professional management. Enjoy evenings on the common roof deck or head out to the countless nearby restaurants at Ink Block (Bar Mezzana, Kaia, Whole Foods, CVS, Tatte, etc) as well as Restaurant Row favorites like Barcelona, Picco and Life Alive. With vibrant regularly scheduled SoWa events in such close proximity this is your chance to join one of Boston's most beloved neighborhoods!
