Plagued by slow sales upon its completion in 2009, 45 Province St. is benefiting from the hot real estate market and is now building out some spectacular penthouse condos with fantastic views of downtown, the harbor, Back Bay and Cambridge.
While it was a big risk to build a high-end 137-unit condo building in an untested midtown location just off Downtown Crossing, the quick sales at nearby Millennium Place and the resuscitation of the Millennium Tower project on the site of the former Filene's have really given 45 Province a boost. Last year, 41 of the condos in the building were sold, and in the past few months, several units priced from $3.5 million to $4 million have found buyers. There are only 25 units left for sale in the building, from a 1,300-square-foot loft for $975,000 to a 2,741-square-foot, three-bedroom-plus penthouse on the 31st floor that's under construction and will be listed for $4.5 million.
We took a look at a recently built-out duplex penthouse condo, Unit 2404, a three-bedroom-plus unit with its own 500-square-foot outdoor roof deck that arguably has the most spectacular residential views along the Back Bay and Cambridge sides of the Charles River. This 3,319-square-foot condo, with custom Italian kitchen cabinetry, bamboo floors throughout and high-end porcelain tile bathrooms, is on the market for $4.39 million.
A big selling point of 45 Province, besides its downtown location, is that there are dozens of different floor plans because the building gets slimmer as it rises.
There's a large lobby tended by a 24/7 concierge.
Although the condo fees are high, they include two valet garage parking spaces, heating and central cooling and use of the building's 12th floor rooftop heated pool, a fitness and spa facility, a clubroom with a kitchen and a large movie theater room with a projection-screen TV.
Unit 2404 is on the 24th and 25th floors atop a setback that rises seven more slimmer stories. It sits at the end of a carpeted hallway with recessed doorways.
Off the foyer and adjacent to a half bathroom is the unit's signature space: a two-story open dining room with downtown views through a 20-foot high wall of glass plus a private balcony.
The adjacent custom kitchen features Italian-made walnut cabinets with frosted-glass cabinets above gray onyx counters. There's a separate onyx-topped island with a Miele five-burner gas stove, a built-in wine cooler and a fluted Zephyr hood above. There's also a stainless-steel Miele wall and convection oven and dishwasher and a large Sub- Zero refrigerator.
The living room has great city and harbor views from two walls of windows.
The condo's large master bedroom suite is at the rear of the 24th floor with spectacular views down the Charles River from a wall of windows. It features a large walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom with porcelain tile floors with nickel insets. There's a crushed white glass double-sink vanity with Waterworks nickel fixtures. There's also a porcelain-tiled walk-in shower.
A glass-walled bamboo staircase leads up to a large open space on the 25th floor that can be used as a family room or home office and overlooks the dining area. It has glass doors leading out to a 500-square-foot private roof deck. The deck has jaw-dropping views down both sides of the Charles River.
There are also two smaller guest bedrooms, one with a private balcony, but both have en-suite porcelain tile bathrooms with Waterworks nickel fixtures. One bathroom has a porcelain walk-in shower, the other a whirlpool tub.
