Boston’s northern neighbor offers much lower prices and fantastic views of the Mystic River and Boston itself
Chelsea has some of the best views of Boston from just on the other side of the Mystic River. Many of the homes in our weekend open house tour prove it. The listings include a four-level single-family with ample outdoor space and a penthouse with direct views of the Tobin Bridge and the Boston skyline.
Even better than the views perhaps is none of these is asking more than $800,000 and most are asking much less than that.
