Boston, Allston / Brighton, Massachusetts

Allston-Brighton is a true melting pot of Bostonians and its housing.  This neighborhood has it all - families, college students, hipsters, young professionals, etc.  You name it, they live here.  Sprinkled throughout these two neighborhoods are numerous restaurants, cafes and bars.  The nightlife seen is robust, with some of the best live music in the city.

The Allston-Brighton neighborhoods are located west of Boston proper with sections along the Charles River and home to three of the finest schools in the country: Harvard University, Boston College & Boston University. 

Its main thorough fares are Commonwealth & Brighton Avenue, intersected by Harvard Avenue which are lined by 4-5 story brick apartment buildings.  For all of their similarities, Brighton has far more single family homes which gives it a more residential feel.  Public transportation ( T ) is very good, and there is also easy access to the MA Turnpike & Storrow Drive. 

Housing costs in these neighborhoods remain affordable, by Boston standards which makes this neighborhood a strong draw for all types of homebuyers.
