How about a Beacon Hill townhouse with the patio facing the street? That’s the fifth home in this week’s roundup of Massachusetts’ most expensive recent home sales. Although calling cobblestoned Spruce Court a “street” might be a stretch: Tucked behind one of the tallest residential buildings on Beacon Hill, it reads as an alleyway. And it’s so narrow that No. 7 and its cozy bluestone patio are hardly even visible to passersby.
