Boston gives buyers a wide range of choices in one city, from 19th-century brownstones and classic triple-deckers to new condos with harbor views and single-family homes on quiet, tree-lined streets. Each neighborhood has its own character, so the right fit depends on how you want to live day to day.
Condos are the most common home for sale in Boston. You'll find them in converted brownstones, triple-deckers, and modern elevator buildings across nearly every neighborhood. Multi-family homes are also a big part of the market, especially two- and three-families in Dorchester, East Boston, Allston, and Brighton. Single-family homes are most common in the outer neighborhoods, including West Roxbury, Hyde Park, Roslindale, and parts of Dorchester.
Back Bay, Beacon Hill, the South End, and the North End offer historic architecture and walkable streets close to downtown. Along the water, the Seaport, Charlestown, East Boston, and South Boston combine harbor views with newer construction. Jamaica Plain, Dorchester, Roslindale, Allston, and Brighton offer a neighborhood feel with local shops, parks, and easy transit. West Roxbury and Hyde Park are known for single-family homes with driveways and yards.
Prices vary widely by neighborhood and home type. In recent listings, condos typically listed around $790,000, single-family homes around $1 million, and two- to four-family homes around $1.3 million. Neighborhoods such as Mattapan, Hyde Park, and Roslindale have offered some of the lower prices in the city, while Back Bay, Beacon Hill, and the Seaport sit at the top of the market.
Boston is served by the MBTA's subway lines, buses, and Commuter Rail, and Logan International Airport sits in East Boston. Many neighborhoods put residents within a short ride of downtown, the Longwood Medical Area, and the city's universities.
Buyers choose Boston for its job market, world-class hospitals and universities, green spaces like the Boston Common and the Emerald Necklace, and the chance to live in a city with centuries of history on every block.
