Where Is It?

Straddling the border between the South End and the Back Bay, 285 Columbus Lofts is a 63 unit condo building featuring loft style layouts, including high ceilings and extra large windows.

A unique blend between Boston’s urban culture and its historic architecture can be found here in what many call the heart of the city. Stretching from Massachusetts Avenue to the Boston Public Garden, the tree-lined streets filled with brownstone homes introduce a new type of city living to many first-timers in Boston. The collection of boutiques, galleries, department stores, and restaurants found within the Prudential Center, Copley Place and on Newbury Street provide a shopping experience like no other found in New England. When one combines these qualities with the natural attributes of the Boston Common and the Esplanade on the Charles River, all topped by the additional architectural attractions found in the Trinity Church and Boston Public Library, the Back Bay quickly becomes a top choice for prospective renters and buyers. Apartments and condominiums vary from charming brownstones to New York style high-rises with concierge services. Travel is made easy via the city’s convenient and efficient Green Line T transportation. Commuters venturing beyond the city limits can catch a train to New York, Providence Rhode Island,  or other east coast destinations at Back Bay Station.

Why Do We Love It?

There are designer level finishes like Wolf ranges, Sub Zero refrigerators, Ann Sacks tile, and Grohe fixtures.  To top it off, there is a common roof deck with terrific views.  Parking is available and there is convenient access to the Mass Pike, Back Bay MBTA Station, never mind all the terrific shops and restaurants of the South End and Back Bay that are within walking distance.

What Is Around It?

Columbus is a great street with some neat places to eat or have a drink. There is a great newer wine shop, The Urban Grape, only a couple steps away from the property that we love. You can also check out favorites like Clery’s and Brownstone around the corner. And, of course, the Shops at Prudential is a minute away.
