Not a list of every city in Massachusetts. These are the places I know square by square: the building stock, the walk to the train, and what a block is really worth versus what the neighborhood average says. Pick one and I'll show you the version I'd give a friend.
Seven neighborhoods inside the city line.
The most legible grid in Boston.
Boston's most legible grid: alphabetical cross streets, Victorian bowfronts, and the city's deepest full-service tower inventory.
The blocks
The slope sets the price.
Federal and Greek Revival rowhouses on brick sidewalks, where the slope you are on decides the building, the stairs, and the price.
The blocks
Four blocks from walk-up to waterfront.
Boston's oldest street pattern and its newest waterfront towers, four blocks apart. Tight walk-ups on one side, full-service elevator buildings on the other.
The blocks
Bowfronts around the ovals.
The largest intact Victorian rowhouse district in the country, organized around oval parks, with a warehouse loft market grafted onto its southern edge.
The blocks
The skyline is the comp.
The best skyline views in the city, on the Blue Line and the ferry. Waterfront new construction beside hundred-year-old frame multi-families.
The blocks
Three miles of waterfront, two stops out.
Three miles of waterfront, two Red Line stops, and the most new-construction condo inventory in the city.
The blocks
The green side of the Orange Line.
Boston's greenest neighborhood: the Pond, the Arboretum, and triple-decker conversions on four Orange Line stops.
The blocks
Four cities, one train ride out.
Coming-soon, square by square.
Four miles square and no two squares alike. Condo conversions, two-families, and the Green Line Extension's new front doors.
The blocks
Nine submarkets. One strategy each.
Nine distinct submarkets inside one small city, from mansard-roof conversions to Kendall Square towers.
The blocks
Thirteen villages, priced independently.
Thirteen villages that price independently. Victorians, Colonials, and shingle-style houses on the D branch and the Worcester line.
The blocks
The shortest beach commute in Greater Boston.
Three miles of ocean on the Blue Line. Oceanfront condo towers, frame two- and three-families, and the shortest beach commute in Greater Boston.
The blocks
Working somewhere that isn't on this list? Ask anyway.
I cover Boston and the surrounding communities, and if a market isn't one I know properly I'll say so and point you to someone who does.
