Forget “JB for 3.” How about for $4.9 million? That’s how much Jaylen Brown’s Fort Point penthouse is back on the market for.
The beloved Celtics star, whose name has been connected to several teams due to trade rumors, just re-listed his penthouse: PH501 at 49 Melcher St. But this time, it comes with a twist. The sale includes the adjacent studio residence, PH503, which Brown used while living there. Together, the 3,500-square-foot combination is on the market for $4,995,000.George Sarkis and Roy Bahnam of The Sarkis Team at Douglas Elliman have the listing.
The property was previously listed in 2024 for $4,750,000, when it included just the main penthouse, but it, instead, was rented out until now. Sarkis called the property “the MVP of townhouses.”
“It really is,” he said. “It’s obviously a really cool unit in a really cool space.”

The four-bedroom, three-and-a-half bathroom condo, which is located in the building containing the popular restaurant Mooo…. Seaport, boasts an industrial vibe, a nod to its former life as a factory. Featuring an open layout, it offers corner exposure with natural lighting streaming in from Melcher and Necco streets. The building was originally constructed in 1910 by the Boston Wharf Company, like many of the other properties in the Fort Point neighborhood.
The main living space has exposed brick walls, oversized factory windows, and a 12-foot high ceiling with the original wood beams. The open space continues to the dining area and the kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances and an expansive island.
“The open concept, the feel of it, the brick and beam — to see this at about a 3,000-square-foot scale is very hard to come by,” Sarkis said. “Having one of Boston’s steakhouses in the building is a big bonus.”
The adjoining studio has a full kitchen and a sleeping/living area with the same wood-beamed ceiling. It’s about 350 square feet.

The primary suite has a walk-in closet and a bathroom with a double vanity and a walk-in shower. The unit comes with a washer and dryer. There’s also a 400-square-foot roof deck with views of the city accessed via a spiral staircase.

As for Brown’s time in the unit, Sarkis said the baller loved both the proximity to the highway for heading to practice and the accessibility of the restaurant downstairs. He also appreciated the building’s quiet location.
“He just loved being in a low-key building. He loved it. He’s in and out. He would go in there and have dinner, have friends over,” Sarkis said. “It was close to everything, but far enough away.”
