Historic homes in Boston, MA (287 active) | Unique Homes MA

Boston holds the densest concentration of historic single-family inventory in Massachusetts, and four neighborhood-defining styles shape most of what you’ll find:

Beacon Hill Federal bowfronts: brick rowhouses with curved bays and recessed entries, mostly 1800–1830 along Chestnut, Mt. Vernon, and the flat of the hill
Back Bay brownstones: Italianate and Victorian high-stoop terraces laid out 1857–1890 on the filled Back Bay land
South End Italianates: bowfront rowhouses with bracketed cornices on Tremont, Columbus, and the parallel cross-streets
Triple Deckers: turn-of-the-century three-family homes in Dorchester, Roxbury, JP, and Brighton

The city’s Landmarks Commission designates over 8,500 properties, and many overlap MACRIS historic-inventory records, which we surface on individual listing pages where available.
