You might WFH sometimes, but you want city living. Why? Because the suburbs are for geezers like me. Youre chasing energy, community, culture, and connection and you'll find it at 20 Tower Street. Jamaica Plain might just be the pinnacle of idyllic city living. Historic charm, lush green spaces, public transportation, a thriving arts scene, and incredible dining all here, all nearby.Up the street is Forest Hills Cemetery. Down the street, the Forest Hills Orange Line. Across the street, the Arnold Arboretum and South Street Community Garden. Seconds away? Brassica Kitchen. There are nine parks and gardens within a half-mile and a whole city at your fingertips.The property checks boxes: parking, outdoor space, extra storage, laundry in-unit, and dedicated space for that home office, gym, or even guest room for versatility. Inside, its all fresh: newly refinished floors, updated lighting, and a full repaint. It's quintessential JP. The vibe is ready. Are you?
