Always wanted to sit back and relax in a lofty abode offering picturesque views of South Boston‘s Seaport area—one with an expansive roof deck and easy access to an acclaimed steakhouse, for instance? Well, if you’ve got an extra $4.75 million lying around and are eager to spend it, this industrial-style residence in the Fort Point neighborhood might be the ideal spot to settle down in unique style.
Records show the condo was last purchased for $5.5 million in October 2021. Its current owner is Celtics star Jaylen Brown, who was named NBA Finals MVP in June after the team snagged its league-record 18th championship. Tailored to suit his personal needs, the corner unit lies on the top floor of the five-story Necco Landing building, which once served as a textile factory.

Billed in the listing as a “home for champions,” Brown’s loft features three bedrooms and a matching number of baths in nearly 3,000 square feet of living space adorned throughout with the original exposed brick walls, 12-foot-high wood-beam ceilings, and oversized teal-framed windows providing abundant natural light.
An open-plan great room holds a living and dining area displaying basketball memorabilia, a wine fridge, a billiard table, and arcade machines, while a sleekly designed kitchen is outfitted with open shelving, an eat-in island, and top-tier stainless appliances. A spacious primary suite boasts two walk-in closets and a bath equipped with dual vanities and a large shower, and elsewhere is an elevator-accessible entry foyer that has a spiral staircase leading up to a 400-square-foot roof deck sporting a fire pit.

The new owner will be required to pay a $1,842 monthly maintenance charge, which includes heat and air-conditioning, water, sewer, master insurance, and trash removal. There’s also a private resident’s entrance to the ground-floor Mooo…. Seaport restaurant.
Brown, who was drafted as the third overall pick by the Boston Celtics in 2016, agreed to a five-year, $304 million supermax contract extension in 2023, which ranks as the richest contract in NBA history. That means the three-time All-Star will earn an estimated average of $60.8 million per year during the life of the contract.
The listing is held by George Sarkis and Manny Sarkis of The Sarkis Team at Douglas Elliman.
