Renovated Beacon Hill townhouse asking $5.1M includes drive-in garage

The bones of the 2,935-square-foot, 10-room townhouse at 33 Branch Street in Beacon Hill date from 1890, but the spread is really a product of a renovation that Boston-based Frank McGuire Architects undertook toward the start of this decade.

The work left behind touches such as a large foyer with an elevator and a fountain in the private garden out back. There is also the potential for five bedrooms.

The piece de resistance, though, might be the garage.

How much? Not cheap: $5.1 million, or more than $1,700 a square foot, through Gibson Sotheby’s International.
