The building offers a genuinely varied mix. One-bedroom homes typically feature open layouts, updated kitchens, fireplaces, and garage parking, often with courtyard or park-facing views. Two-bedroom, two-bath residences include corner units with multiple exposures, bay windows, and 12-foot ceilings in the original schoolhouse building with 7-foot windows and crown molding.
A standout category is the duplex and penthouse residences: two-story townhome-style units with private or separate entrances, double en-suite bedrooms (2BR/2.5BA), private decks or terraces, and layouts exceeding 1,400 square feet. One penthouse spans 1,443 square feet. Several duplexes offer two-car garage parking. HOA fees range widely, from about $58.99 to $848 per month, reflecting the diversity of unit sizes and parking configurations.
The Courtyard's location is consistently cited as its greatest asset. Homes sit steps from Charlestown's best restaurants and shops, within the gas-lit streets of Town Hill and City Square, and close to Harvard Park and the Bunker Hill Monument. The combination of a walkable neighborhood, secure garage parking, and proximity to downtown Boston via the Zakim Bridge corridor makes it a compelling choice for buyers seeking both convenience and neighborhood charm.
