Tommy Hommagen, a formerly enslaved Black man, lived, farmed, and ran a stagecoach in the early 1800s on a rocky rise that became known as “Tommy’s Rock.”
Now a condo development called Tommy’s Rock Residences, a four-story elevator building with 14 owner-occupied units, pays homage to the enterprising man. Our Home of the Week, Unit 304, is a multilevel town house-style condo with two balconies and a 228-square-foot deck — all private. This unit also comes with access to the Roxbury development’s shared roof deck.
The entrance to the 1,570-square-foot unit is on the third floor. The front door opens into a hallway with a closet and a path that leads to an open layout encompassing the kitchen and living and dining areas.
The kitchen is a classic galley-style setup with stainless steel appliances, white Shaker-style cabinets with black handles, and Silestone countertops. Light comes from a tall window over the peninsula, recessed lighting, and three pendant lights with glass shades shaped like bells.
The dining area, found just beyond the peninsula, flows into a living area with a picture window and recessed lighting. Step through the slider onto the 13-foot-wide balcony.
Your guests could have their pick: They can stay in the bedroom on this level or in the secondary one on the floor below. The guest room on the main level could be used as a home office. Light pours in through a picture window and a rectangular window, the mirror image of the one in the kitchen. The full bath on this floor is shower-only and comes with ceramic tile on the floor and in the shower, as well as a single vanity with a quartz top.
Bid your guest good night, and head downstairs to the primary suite. Highlights include a walk-in closet, a private balcony, and a full bath that offers a single vanity with a granite countertop, ceramic tile flooring, and a shower/tub combination with a ceramic tile surround.
The final bedroom features a picture window and a sliding-door closet. The final bath offers a single vanity topped with granite, a shower with a glass door, and ceramic tile on the floor and in the shower. A laundry closet, found behind sliding doors, completes this floor.
The unit includes one off-street parking space. The monthly fee covers water, insurance, security, maintenance of the structure and grounds, trash removal, and the reserve fund.
