West Roxbury Condos for Sale & Rent

West Roxbury has it all. This suburban neighborhood has quiet tree-lined streets, discrete business areas and a great location. Residents enjoy suburban surroundings and urban conveniences. It's one of the best markets for condo buyers who want a lot of space at a relatively low price point.

West Roxbury has a large number of single-family homes. Only a few private homes have been converted into multi-unit dwellings. These are generally located in historic neighborhoods and on smaller side streets. The majority of condos are located in professionally managed buildings or in modern townhouse developments that offer value-added services and amenities. These professionally managed condos and townhomes are typically situated on West Roxbury's main streets, including Veterans of Foreign Wars Parkway, which runs alongside Brook Farm, Millennium Park and other green spaces. West Roxbury has a significant number of new and recently built condominiums that appeal to value-oriented buyers.

Condos and Townhomes

Based on overall availability, you're more likely to find a townhome or a condo in a professionally managed complex than a unit in a private home. If you opt for a townhome, you'll get a unit with two or three stories, generously sized rooms, an attached garage, dedicated storage areas and other attractive features. Buyers who prefer the convenience of living in a full-service complex will find modern loft-style units with tall cathedral ceilings, open floor plans and great amenities. Either option will likely include multiple parking spaces, an in-unit washer and dryer, walk-in closets, a master suite, a gas fireplace and a gourmet kitchen outfitted with stainless steel appliances, granite counters and premium fixtures.

If the quality amenities and affordable prices aren't enough to capture your interest, you might be partial to West Roxbury's fabulous location and surroundings. This quiet neighborhood is bordered by posh country clubs and affluent parts of Roslindale, Brookline and Newton's Oak Hill village. Plus, the community is home to Millennium Park, which is Boston's largest recreation area. Neighborhoods along Spring, Centre, Lagrange and Washington streets enjoy perennial popularity, but you might also like living in the Brook Farm area, which is one of the five fastest-growing real estate markets in Boston.
