Homes standing in Back Bay this morning
One side of the street went up last year, the other in 1890, and Newbury runs three minutes behind both. First offers land in 14 days here, against a median of eleven across the six.

What Back Bay costs, in four figures
All four come off our own listings rather than a market index, so they answer for the homes on this page and nothing wider.
Per square foot
$1,395/sqft
Dearer than all but one of the six. Counted on finished floor area, so a basement adds nothing.
To a first offer
14days
Faster than all but four of the six. Half of what we list here is under agreement by then, against a median of eleven days across all six.
