Apartments for Rent in Beacon Hill

Beacon Hill is one of Boston’s oldest neighborhoods and is known for its beautiful architecture and rich history. The neighborhood receives its name from a beacon that once stood atop the highest point in Boston to warn locals about invasion. Beacon Hill is home to historic landmarks and museums including the Massachusetts State House and the Boston African American National Historic Site. Between its cobblestones, gaslit streetlamps, and Federal-style and Victorian brick row houses, Beacon Hill feels as if you’ve stepped into the past, but the neighborhood still has plenty of modern amenities. Along with historic residences, Beacon Hill has apartments, condos, and houses available for rent as well. Charles Street is filled with antique shops, posh boutiques, and award-winning eateries. The neighborhood is located along the Charles River, giving residents easy access to waterfront green spaces like the Charles River Esplanade and Hatch Memorial Shell, a popular amphitheater. Massachusetts General Hospital rests to the north and the historic Boston Common sits directly south of Beacon Hill.
