The Kensington Amenities
Property Description
Nestled in the heart of downtown Boston, The Kensington is a beacon of eco-conscious luxury. Boasting the prestigious LEED Gold certification, this champion of the green revolution offers a lifestyle choice that minimizes environmental impact while maximizing tenant convenience, comfort, and health.
A smoke-free zone, both within the apartments and in all common areas, The Kensington achieves harmonious cohabitation with nature through its energy-efficient, centralized heating, cooling, and hot water systems. The use of materials like low VOC paint and carpeting sourced from recycled materials further underscores the building’s commitment to sustainability. ENERGY STAR appliances, solar shade window coverings, low-flow plumbing fixtures, and lighting provided by energy-efficient LED and CFL fixtures further enhance the building’s eco-credentials.
The location couldn’t be more convenient- enough to make you forget about owning a car. Besides, with an on-site car rental service, and a free electric car charging station, the world is at your fingertips.
The Kensington offers a variety of floor plans from spacious one and two bedroom homes to luxurious penthouses. Each residence exudes sophistication with finishes that include oak hardwood flooring, high ceilings, and expansive windows that let in an abundance of natural light. From high-capacity washers and dryers to high-efficiency water source heat pumps, and from modern subway tile backsplashes to European-style flat panel cabinets, every detail has been carefully considered.
The amenities at The Kensington offer something for everyone. Enjoy the 3,350 sq ft fitness center complete with state-of-the-art strength training, free weights, and cardio equipment or the interactive Yoga Studio. There’s the expansive lounge with a kitchen and billiards room. If work is on your mind, the Java Link Center is equipped with iMac computers and a printer/copier. For our four-legged friends, there’s a pet spa and an indoor pet relief area.
Offering a range of services, The Kensington ensures you are well taken care of. The building offers a professional 24-hour concierge, a doorman service, and a private parking garage. You can take advantage of the dry cleaning and laundry services, the package acceptance and at-your-door delivery, dinner reservations, and even dog walking, grooming, and sitting services. Plus, with an on-site ATM and monthly resident events, The Kensington is not just an apartment building, it’s a vibrant community.
All in all, The Kensington offers eco-conscious apartment living that combines luxury, comfort, and convenience. With its high-end amenities and an unbeatable downtown Boston location, living at The Kensington means embracing an exciting, sustainable lifestyle.
