The bones of the 1,900-square-foot, four-fireplace federal at 3 Sentry Hill Place in Beacon Hill date from 1843, but the townhouse was renovated in 2013.

The spread—on one of the tony neighborhood’s private streets—includes three bedrooms and three full bathrooms. A roof deck accessible via a staircase and with a small head house caps the affair, which is asking $2.25 million through Terrence Maitland at LandVest.

That’s hefty, but perhaps it’s to be expected given the property and its location. The median sales price for a downtown Boston townhouse at the end of 2019 was $1,311,500, according to a report from appraiser Miller Samuel and brokerage Douglas Elliman.
