Property Description

When you want to be close to Downtown Boston without being in the city, Babcock Tower is your solution. These spacious apartments come in a variety of sizes to suit your needs. Choose from studios, one-bedroom apartments or two-bedroom apartments. Apartments have been recently renovated to provide modern and the latest in-demand amenities.

Apartment features add convenience and will make your life easier. The kitchens are designed to make cooking a pleasure, and come fully equipped with the appliances you need: range, disposal, dishwasher, and instant hot water. Air conditioning keeps you comfortable on those very hot days. The vinyl flooring is bright and easy to clean. The large windows flood the apartment with natural light adding brightness to the cheery interior. Balconies let you take in the spectacular Boston skyline. For your communication and entertainment needs, there is high speed internet, and the apartment is cable ready. Utilities are included to simplify household finances.

Community features are just as outstanding. The laundry facilities let you wash and dry your clothes without lugging them to an outside laundromat. The elevator makes it easy to travel through the building. If you have a bike, you don’t have to worry about where to store it; bike racks are available. There is also garage parking if you need it. And don’t worry about your furry friends having a place to stay. Babcock Tower is pet friendly; you could have two pets, either cats or dogs.

The highly competent staff is there to assist you should the need arise. There is on-site management and on-site maintenance. Since you can’t always be home even if you don’t want to leave this terrific residence, there is a smart package room.

The location is great for touring and visiting sites around the lively city of Boston. The MBTA is just one tenth of a mile away. You are near the Charles River, the New Balance Field, incredible shopping, historical sites, and sumptuous restaurants.

When you tour Babcock Tower, you will be impressed by the location and conveniences, but you will want to stay for the luxurious home it provides.
