Carruth Condos in Dorchester a Relief
From the archive. Published in 2007; prices, rates and rules have changed since.
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.
