Elm Park Houses for Sale

Home to Worcester Polytechnic Institute, Elm Park has a variety of residents. College kids sit on rental properties’ porches, waving at dog walkers who have lived in the neighborhood for decades. Students can walk to class and, afterward, head to the Boynton Restaurant and Spirits, a Worcester staple since the 1930s, or hang out in the shade of willow trees at Elm Park, for which the neighborhood is named. The Worcester Art Museum is also steps from WPI and showcases works spanning 50 centuries. Plus, this central Worcester neighborhood is a short drive from some of the city’s favorite areas – downtown Worcester, the Canal District and Shrewsbury Street are all less than 5 miles away. “Elm Park attracts all kinds of people – college students, professors, young families, it’s really great for anyone,” says Joseph Abramoff, Realtor with BA Property & Lifestyle Advisors and lifelong Worcester resident. “And it’s in this great central location. You can walk to restaurants and things like that if you like, but the neighborhood still stays quiet at night.” Park Avenue splits the 58-acre Elm-Park green space. Wooded trails on the park's west side—called Newton Hill—cover nearly 4 miles.
