Dorchester Carruth Holds Grand Opening Party

The Ashmont MBTA station and surrounding area is home to significant development and redevelopment these days, included in this is the mixed-use, for-sale and rental development at the Carruth, which overlooks the transit hub.

The Carruth, a Trinity Financial development, now has a model home open, and have priced their 1 through 2+ bedroom units from $269,000 to $429,000 (including parking). We received a tour of the construction site in late 2007 (see The Carruth Condo Development), and it’s great to see a transit oriented development, just south of the city, take shape.

A grand opening house party will be held Saturday and Sunday, March 8th and 9th, from 12 – 4PM each day. This will serve as our Featured Open House of the week. Please let Larry, and the whole team at the Carruth, know that you heard about the open house here on the Boston Condo Blog. Food and drinks (coffee) will be served at the event in conjunction with two of the commercial inhabitants of the building, Tavolo, and Flat Black Coffee.

Dorchester Carruth Condos Under Construction

The Carruth Condo Development

We had the pleasure of sitting down with both the developer and marketing team of the Carruth earlier this week. Following our meeting, we received a full tour of the hard hat job site, which is quickly approaching completion. The Carruth is a new mixed-use, for-sale condo and rental development in Dorchester. The $40 million Carruth development overlooks the Ashmont transit station, which is also getting a $50 million makeover.

Carruth Condos in Dorchester a Relief

Have you heard of it? The Carruth.

Similar to 285 Columbus Lofts, a new loft-style condo development on the border of the South End and Back Bay that overlooks the Back Bay T Stop, the Carruth overlooks a major public transportation hub at the Ashmont transit station. Both developments will boast easy T access, but only one can be had for $300 per square foot – the Carruth. Pricing at the Carruth ranges from $269,000 and $379,000, including garage parking.

With the continuing upward trend in Boston condo prices, the Carruth condos in Dorchester, a Dennis Duffy design, will provide pricing relief to Bostonians like a cool glass of water on a hot day. You’re paying for a lot of things when you buy a piece of city-center Boston real estate, namely location, which is of key importance to a lot of people, however, the Carruth, at 20 minutes outside downtown, provides a great option for those who don’t want or need core downtown accommodations.

The Carruth is currently accepting reservations for a 2008 opening, use the Contact Us link at the top of this page for more information on the for sale condos.
