A limestone-and-brick floor-through on the Commonwealth mall — oriel light, a working parlor, and the Public Garden a walk away.
Commonwealth House sits on the mall side, where the elms still make a ceiling. The house was raised in 1889 and has been kept honest: plaster, a carved stair, and a parlor that knows how to hold a dinner. The kitchen was opened to the garden floor without sanding off the house. Three bedrooms, a proper study, and a roof deck that looks west down the avenue. This is Back Bay as it was meant — not a hotel, not a loft, a house.
