This $5M Seaport District townhouse is just 12 feet wide and made of metal

June 22, 2018

What this newly built townhouse lacks in width, it makes up for in height (h/t CityRealty). Located on one of the historic area’s original cobblestoned streets, at 246 Front Street, the 12-foot-wide home has four stories, plus a basement and private roof terrace. In addition to its narrow frame, the house also stands out for its unique metal facade, made entirely of steel and zinc.

In total, the home spans 2,706 square feet. According to CityRealty data, the price of $1,848 per square foot is well above the Financial District average of $1,480.
