Why East Boston homebuyers are drawn to Eagle Hill
Eagle Hill is perched on one of the highest points in East Boston, a peninsula that extends across the Boston Harbor from downtown. Historic homes from the late 1800s and early 1900s line the streets, some of which carry the names of Revolutionary War battles and generals. Though this is a dense urban neighborhood, pockets of green space and scenic overlooks allow residents to take in views of the Boston skyline and the surrounding water. Frequent travelers and airline workers are drawn to the area for its proximity to Logan Airport, which is about a mile away on the other side of Interstate 90.
The historic Eagle Hill neighborhood is a quaint area across the harbor from Downtown Boston.

The rundown on the Eagle Hill housing market
Eagle Hill’s median home sale price of $625,000 is low by Boston standards, and most residents rent. Add in the fact that condos, townhomes and apartments make up the bulk of the property blend, and you have an investor-ready neighborhood. “People who appreciate the architecture have started to come in and restore houses,” says Ed Deveau, a lifetime East Boston resident and Realtor with Century 21 Mario Real Estate. Home sale prices generally run from the lower $400,000s to the mid-$1 millions. Many buildings date to the early 1900s and feature Victorian-style architecture, with bay windows and asymmetrical exteriors, but some newer condo developments are wedged in among the older triple-deckers. You’ll find a few single-family workers’ cottages in the mix as well. Some properties near the water are prone to flooding, but many homes are built on higher elevation lots set back from the water’s edge. If you do buy within a flood zone, you might be required to invest in flood insurance.
Stately, colorful homes line the streets of Eagle Hill.
Beautiful homes from the late 1800s and early 1900s are scattered throughout Eagle Hill.

MBTA buses, the Blue Line and the East Boston Ferry serve commuters
Eagle Hill is about 3 miles from Downtown Boston, and though the harbor lies between the two neighborhoods, the Callahan and Sumner tunnels along Route 1A bridge the gap. The drive can take 15 to 20 minutes in light traffic; however, it’s usually easier to take public transit. The residential streets are walkable, and nearby T stations are served by the Blue Line and several MBTA bus routes. You can also get downtown via the East Boston Ferry from Lewis Mall Wharf. Parking isn’t as competitive here as in some Boston neighborhoods, but it’s rare for lower-priced condos and townhomes to have driveways or other off-street options. If you own a car, you might have to lease a space separately, especially in winter when street parking gets tighter.
Several MBTA bus routes run through Eagle Hill.
The Blue Line serves local T stations, including the one at Logan Airport.

East Boston High School is right in Eagle Hill.
Public and private school options around Eagle Hill
The Boston Public Schools district serves local students, using a choice-based enrollment system for elementary and middle school students. Families rank their preferences from a customized list of schools based on their home address, and a lottery-style algorithm determines placement. For high school, kids can apply to any school in the district, but East Boston High is right in the neighborhood, making it a convenient choice. East Boston High students can participate in career pathways in fields like criminal justice, design and biotechnology. The highly rated East Boston Central Catholic School is also close by, providing a private option for kids in prekindergarten through eighth grade.
Comparing Eagle Hill to other East Boston neighborhoods
With Logan Airport just a mile away, Eagle Hill experiences airplane noise on a regular basis. Although FAA procedures aim to route arrivals and departures over Boston Harbor when conditions allow, flight paths vary based on wind and runway use, so overhead air traffic is a part of life here. That’s also the case for other East Boston neighborhoods like Jeffries Point, which adjoins the airport, and Harbor View-Orient Heights. If you’d like to extend your search to those areas, be aware that the median sale prices in each are higher than in Eagle Hill, though still below the citywide median.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
