A residential neighborhood with Beacon Street at its heart
Initially developed as a part of the summer getaway community of Brookline, Washington Square offers convenience and community. The neighborhood is between Aspinwall and Corey Hills, two of Brookline’s larger hills, with Beacon Street right in between. Beacon Street is the beating heart of the neighborhood, connecting residents easily to the excitement of downtown Boston. Residents have quick access to a wide variety of shopping and dining along the street, as well as six different light rail stations, so no home is too far from the rail. Just outside Beacon Street, residents can find a wide variety of condos and single-family homes next to the highly rated schools in the area. The neighborhood also offers a variety of popular parks atop the hills for both fun in the sun and picturesque views of the Boston Skyline.

Brookline hotspots along Beacon Street
Beacon Street runs through the center of the neighborhood and is home to shopping and dining in the Brookline area, most of which is mere feet from residents' front doors. Locals often frequent Golden Temple, one of the more well-known restaurants that offers “excellent Chinese food” and “music and dancing on the weekend,” says Vena Priestly, a sales and leasing agent with Rise Realty who has been serving the area for over 5 years. Residents can also be seen frequenting The Abbey, which is “one of the most well-known pubs in town” and a popular spot to meet up for a drink with friends. Athan’s Bakery sits on the corner of Beacon and Washington Street and offers sweet treats daily. Residents can stock up their pantries at the nearby Star Market on Beacon Street or Whole Foods less than half a mile up Washington Street.

Light rails and sidewalks in Brookline
Residents of Washington Square have quick access to various transportation, primarily due to light rail stops from Summit Avenue to Dean Road along Beacon Street. Both the C and D lines run through the neighborhood quickly and consistently, so “a lot of people end up walking to the train stations, even if they have cars,” Priestly says. However, car owners can also make use of the neighborhood’s location as it is an “easy commute to downtown and I-90,” Priestly says. Logan International Airport is 8 miles away for locals looking to take a trip, and St. Elizabeth's Medical Center is less than 2 miles away for residents seeking medical care.

Historic homes often draw from Queen Anne, Cape Cod or brownstone architectural styles, while more modern homes take on a simpler postmodern design and shape. Residents can also find condos for sale with amenities like concierge services and fitness centers. “There are a lot of historic buildings,” Priestly says, “No two houses are the same.” Prices in the neighborhood can range from around $400,000 to S3.5 million.

Public Schools of Brookline
For many residents, the nearby schools are one of the main reasons for moving to Washington Square. Michael Driscoll School, the only public school in the Washington Square neighborhood, offers a kindergarten through eighth-grade learning program that receives an A rating on Niche.
