Beacon Hill Real Estate
Beacon Hill is an iconic Boston neighborhood composed of brick rowhouses and is renowned for its narrow, gas lit streets and gorgeous brick sidewalks. Charles Street, a main thoroughfare, runs through the flat of the hill and is lined with many quaint and charming restaurants, shops and cafes. The ideal location lies between the Boston Common and borders the Esplanade on the Charles River where recreational activity is at your fingertips.
Beacon Hill is well known for being one of the most expensive districts in the state. Originally, the area was named after the location of a former beacon, which sat atop the highest point in central Boston. Although this landmark was originally used for warning residents of invasion, it now serves as an archival piece of history.
