EA Fish Assocs. and Peabody Props. developing 4 townhouse buildings

EA Fish Associates and Peabody Properties, Inc. are developing The Museum Residences at the Waterworks at Chestnut Hill, four luxury residences with exclusive waterfront views. The model unit, The Leavitt, is completed and available for viewing; the three other properties are scheduled for completion in May. Designed by The Gund Partnership, The Museum Residences are a residential development comprised of four luxury townhouses that border the Chestnut Hill Reservoir; housed in the original Metropolitan Waterworks factory, these residences are each one-of-a-kind. This historic building is a national treasure and has been proclaimed an official Historic Landmark. The residences are adjacent to the Waterworks Museum, scheduled to open in late 2008. Principal Graham Gund said, "Located along the Chestnut Hill Reservoir, the Waterworks buildings are among Boston's most distinctive landmarks. As architects, we wanted to capture the spirit and grandeur of these buildings and create an elegant new way of living." Located at 2446 Beacon St., the four-unit Museum Residences at The Waterworks consists of three-plus bedroom residences ranging in size from 4,298 s/f to more than 7,720 s/f. Offering waterfront views, private elevators, private terraces, and two car garages, the Museum Residences at the Waterworks redefine suburban luxury and offer access to the city while maintaining tremendous value per s/f. "The Museum Residences present an exceptional opportunity to live in a landmark with views of the historic Chestnut Hill Reservoir," said Karen Fish Will, vice-president of Peabody Properties. "These unique residences combine all the luxuries of a private home with unparalleled design and architecture in addition to the convenience of downtown-living." The Leavitt, the first of the four Museum Residences at the Waterworks, has recently been completed and can be viewed by appointment. Featuring three-plus bedrooms, five bathrooms and an au pair apartment on the lower level, the Leavitt is approximately 6,557 s/f and $3.7 million. The Landmark residence, featuring a four story tower with roof access and 360 degree views, is the largest of the residences at 7,720 s/f and is scheduled for completion in early May. The Worthington and The Allis, the two other Museum Residences are also under construction and are scheduled for completion in early May.
