Discover authentic loft living at 49 Melcher Street, a rare gem in the heart of Boston’s Fort Point—once home to the historic NECCO factory and now one of the city's most exciting, design-forward neighborhoods. This spacious unit blends industrial charm with modern comfort, featuring soaring ceilings, original brick-and-beam architecture, an oversized window that floods the space with natural light, and abundant storage rarely found in loft-style homes. Part of a boutique condo conversion completed in 2021, the building offers updated infrastructure while preserving the character that makes Fort Point so special. Often mistaken for the Seaport, Fort Point offers all the proximity with even more convenience—steps to Downtown, South Boston, and the Innovation District, with easy access to public transit, dining, arts, and culture. Live at the intersection of history and modernity in a vibrant neighborhood that locals know is Boston’s best-kept secret.
