About this home

Introducing 129 Commonwealth Avenue, a perfect example of the Classical Revival style located in the heart of Back Bay. Situated on the sunny side of the street, this magnificent residence offers almost 8, 000 square feet of beautifully finished and classically scaled living space and entertaining rooms over 5 levels with direct elevator access. Outstanding features include a grand living room with Juliet balcony overlooking Commonwealth Avenue’s picturesque tree-lined Mall, a handsome mahogany paneled library with wet bar, a stately dining room flanked by white marble fireplaces, a gourmet eat-in kitchen and family room, and a sensational private roof deck with panoramic views of the city. All 6 bedrooms are grand in scale and offer ample storage space, including the luxurious primary suite. This spectacular residence presents the rare opportunity to live in one of Boston’s most distinguished neighborhoods with the addition of 6 private parking spaces, virtually unheard of in Back Bay.
