Back Bay was the only downtown Boston neighborhood where the average per-square-foot sales price for condos in the fourth quarter of 2019 ran northward of $2,000, according to appraiser Miller Samuel and the Warren Group, a local research firm. And the enclave’s median condo sales price was a cool $2.09 million.

So a listing such as Unit 2 at 380 Beacon Street—with its $5.95 million tag through Campion & Company—should not come as a titanic shock.

Besides, the condo is a sizable spread. A floor-through with its own elevator entrance, it runs to 3,714 square feet and includes three bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms—10 rooms total, many with Charles River views. There are also five fireplaces, and the circa-1900 building includes a shared roof deck.

Finally, there’s the Back Bay location itself.
