The 8,450 square foot townhome is lavishly spread over six levels, served by its own elevator system, all topping out with one of the most unique roof decks in all of Boston, with the inclusion of an infinity edge pool and unsurpassed views of the Public Garden.

The Benjamin Mansion (74 Beacon Street) offers essentially every amenity under one roof that an owner could ask for, in one of the most central locations in downtown Boston. Deeded parking and one parking space at the nearby Brimmer Street Garage is also included.

Named for the 1745 Battle of Louisburg, in which Massachusetts Militiamen defeated the French, Louisburg Square is perhaps the most prestigious place to call home on Beacon Hill.
