Bahaus-Moderne Masterpiece… Only the second time on the market since it was built, be the proud new owner of the historic Morris Sanders House featured in the March 1936 edition of "Architecture Forum" when newly built.

All original details are intact and await to be lovingly restored in this nearly 6,900/sf, 6-story home with a garden, roof terrace, and full basement (not included in the square footage). Abutting the property is the historic public garden Amster Yard (said to have been the terminal stop of the Boston Stage Coach on the Eastern Post Road in the 18th Century). Ideal for an end-user (who may want rental income), consulate, foundation, or a family office. Restore to the original setup below or reconfigure as needed. First Floor: Office with design room and private garden.
