This week’s magic number in Greater Boston real estate is $749,000
It puts you a bit shy of the luxury market, but these listings prove $749,000 is enough to open a lot of possibilities in Greater Boston.
$749,000 is not quite enough to put you in the “luxury’’ tier of Boston buyers, but it is enough to give you an amazing range of options.
In Boston or Cambridge, $749,000 might get you a two-bedroom apartment, but in suburbs like Lexington or Hingham, this amount could get you a four-bedroom home on multiple acres.
Check out a few of the listings in and around Boston listed at $749,000, starting with an awesome penthouse in Beacon Hill. All listings are active as of July 22, 2015.
