Quality over quantity
Nestled between Back Bay and the South End, Bay Village is Boston’s smallest official neighborhood.
Surprisingly, the tiny enclave features some of the city’s mightiest historical architecture. Not surprisingly, homes here can command the same prices as in its more well-known neighbors.
This week’s tour takes you from a penthouse in a classic federal-style building with expansive windows to a multifamily home with original details ready for personalization.
