This recent penthouse listing at 96 Beacon Street is the priciest Boston has seen for quite some time. First sold back in April of 2009 for $9,399,673, this property is now back on the market five years later for a jaw-dropping $13 million. The 4 bedroom, 4.5 bath home offers panoramic views of the Back Bay skyline from the privacy of a rooftop deck; complete with an enticing jacuzzi and outdoor brick fireplace.

The home offers modern designs along with a dramatic and elegant white spiral staircase at the center of it all. Additionally, the home has a newly renovated, state-of-the-art kitchen, comfortable library/study, and not one, but two deeded parking spaces to satisfy all of your city parking needs.

With eight rooms, the private rooftop deck, and all 6,337 square feet of that precious Beacon Hill real estate, this property certainly offers a lot of bang for all of that buck.
