Iconic views of the Boston skyline and Beacon Hill are hard to come by from a Cambridge vantage point. That’s the first thing buyers will notice from the penthouse at 10 Rogers Street.

In fact, penthouse unit 7 — one of only nine top floor residences in the full-service building — has much more to offer. To wit, it’s changing hands for the first time in more than 30 years.

Still, it’s fair to gush about the view, which stretches across the Charles to the Esplanade treeline, the gilded dome of the State House, and Beacon Hill’s picturesque brownstones. With two private outdoor decks, there’s plenty of room to air out and catch a sunset in style. When the temperatures have dipped, the view can be enjoyed from the warmth of the living room via floor-to-ceiling glass sliders.

At just over 1,900 square feet, with a formal dining room, two bedrooms, and a flexible den space, the penthouse is roomy without being cavernous, and offers warm spaces for entertaining. After all, who wouldn’t want to share this view? The galley-style kitchen even has a passthrough to the dining room for easy hosting.

And you know what makes hosting even easier? Five dedicated garage parking spaces.

Open house hours are Sunday, Oct. 29, from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.

On the market for $2,700,000, the sale of the penthouse is represented by Paul Campano with Keller Williams Realty Boston Northwest, 617-304-3686.
