Search One Bedroom Apartments for Rent in Back Bay, Boston
Back Bay was laid out on filled land in the second half of the nineteenth century, and the result is the most consistent stretch of Victorian brownstone in the city. Most one bedroom units here are floors or part floors of those row houses along Marlborough, Beacon and Commonwealth Avenue, which means high ceilings, tall windows, decorative mantels and stairs rather than elevators. The larger buildings closer to Massachusetts Avenue and along Commonwealth add elevator access and on site management. City Central Realty covers this inventory every day.
