Unit Types & Layouts

The association features a mix of one- and two-bedroom homes, many with a distinctive character owed to the building's institutional past. One-bedroom, one-bath units are described as rarely available, offering soaring 10-foot ceilings and oversized windows that create a spacious, urban-loft atmosphere with open-concept living areas.

Larger two-bedroom, two-bath homes present ceilings of 12.5 feet and above, front-facing exposures, master suites, and detailed crown molding. Corner units stand out for their exceptional light and views, with ceilings reaching as high as 13 feet. The combination of grand vertical space and generous window openings gives these condominiums a scale that's uncommon in typical Jamaica Plain triple-deckers and newer construction alike.
