How to Make a North End 1-BR Seem Bigger Than It Is

Ah, the miracle of stairs. A winding set of those and high ceilings make this newly listed condo at 287 Hanover Street in the always-charming North End seem a lot bigger than its 831 square feet would suggest. The bedroom upstairs, in fact, is hefty enough to fit a king-sized bed and the only thing really missing is a more modern kitchen. How much for the opportunity to spruce things up in this deceptively capacious abode? Unit 5-7 at 287 Hanover wants $599,000. That pencils out to $720 and change a square foot. Reasonable?
