This exquisite Back Bay brownstone condominium is almost too elegant. There’s no shortage of chandeliers, fireplaces, or dignified Victorian flair. Oversized windows are framed by superbly crafted pocket shutters that might fool you into thinking the streets below are those of Paris instead of Boston. The bedrooms’ distressed walls are still quite regal, and they tastefully contrast the modern kitchen and bathrooms. To say this 1860 abode is handsome would be an understatement, even if its price is flies just below a cool $4 million.
