Once a private home of the owner of Jordan Marsh, the Mitton House was eventually reappropriated as Boston Children’s Museum. By 1980, it was converted to luxury condominiums. Set across from Jamaica Pond, the first floor of the house hosts some of the most magnificent formal rooms of this original residence. The palatial living room, with 12-ft ceilings, is appointed with floor-to-ceiling windows and stunning decorative features bespeaking the craftsmanship and ambiance of the Grand Salons of Europe: deep crown moldings, inset scallop flute niches and a splendid wood-burning fireplace. Once a sunroom, the now spacious custom kitchen with center island, abundant windows, and French doors, leads to a private deck nestled against the trees. Sleeping quarters include a generous primary bedroom suite with multiple closets and ensuite bath. The second bedroom, with custom built-ins, makes for the perfect den/office. Additional amenities: central air, parking, vast basement storage, tennis court, and extensive land
