Boston Condo could set record
Feeling flush? $15M buys 8 baths

oston s condo price record - smashed by a blockbuster $14 million sale at the deluxe Mandarin Oriental - is in danger of being broken again.
The entire top floor of the Trinity Place condo tower, a supersized eight-bedroom, eight-bath penthouse, recently hit the market. The asking price: $15 million.
Those thinking of bidding should be well into the multimillionaire category. The condo fees alone are enough to put a quick end to any daydreaming by the less-than-fabulously wealthy. They re $10,304 a month.
The condo s asking price was enough to turn the head of John Ford, head of Ford Realty and a veteran downtown and Beacon Hill condo marketer.
If it sold at asking price, it would break a record, Ford said. It would raise the bar for Boston and really compete with Manhattan.
The supersized unit, on the 18th floor of the luxury high-rise that overlooks Copley Square, was created after two top-floor units were combined.
Along with views, the condo offers the kind of sprawling space hard to find in Boston: 7,100 square feet of living space, including a 1,439-square-foot gallery connecting the two units. The gallery alone is as large as many single-family homes.
The penthouse is also about twice the size of the units at the posh Mandarin Oriental, which, set to open next year, boasts of 3,600- to 3,700-square-foot condos.
So far, the condo, which came on the market this spring, is getting lots of interest, but there s no deal yet, said Maryann Roos Hoskins of LandVest.
The eventual buyer may very well hail from Asia or Europe, she said.
It s very dramatic. It s the entire top floor. It s private keyed. It has 360-degree views, she said.
