This is your chance to get into a Roslindale single family home for under $600K. Built around the turn of 19th Century, 460 Beech was renovated in 2014. The newer, modern heating system, the young roof, 10 year old insulated windows, and newer appliances is a great place to start. With driveway parking, a small garage, and a usable backyard, it’s checking boxes inside and out.
Period charm meets modern amenity
The bright and modern kitchen with granite counters and stainless appliances has plenty of storage, including a vestibule/pantry area near the rear.
A formal dining room with a built-in china cabinet and sizeable living room round out the first floor. There’s a half-bath w/ a pocket door between the kitchen and rear exit.
Upstairs you’ll find 3 good sized bedrooms with a decent amount of closet space. The bathroom, with a tub to ceiling tiled shower, and marble top vanity is generously apportioned.
There’s an attic crawl space above that may accommodate a heating/cooling system for a future home owner looking to get away from fossil fuels. With few trees encumbering the air space of the home, solar panels could be a smart addition down the road.
The location, at the southernmost point of Roslindale, is super convenient to the VFW and Enneking Parkways, Washington and Poplar Streets too. Nearby greenspaces, like the expansive Stonybrook Reservation, Bellevue Hill Park, and George Wright Golf Course (which is open to the public for walking throughout the late Autumn and Winter) are all great for outdoor enjoyment of many levels. And Blue Hills Reservation with its miles and miles of trails is just under 5 miles from 460 Beech too.
460 Beech Street is a solid home in a great location surrounded by greenspace and convenient roadways. With so many updates already in place, the work to be done is mostly on the exterior of the home, making it an easy move!

A little about Roslindale
Roslindale has been one of Boston’s hottest real estate markets in recent years. Between 2020 and 2021, residential values grew at nearly three times the rate of neighboring JP (Ros: 11.3% vs JP: 4.4%). Why? What makes Rozzie, Rozzie? Roslindale has many sections, each with its own character & color. The centerpiece, Roslindale Village, is from where so much of its character emanates. This small, street encircled hamlet bubbles with so many delightful and unique small businesses; go enjoy a stroll! Adams Park (pictured here) comes alive for holiday events, the legendary Farmers market, and many other community centered events throughout the year. Residents enjoy proximity to Peters Hill which is the highest point in Arnold Arboretum.
Boston Home Team Roslindale Favorites
753 South - Well executed bistro food, casual chic, hideaway patio, and it’s the coolest place to meet up in the Village.
Delfino - Arguably the best Italian in all of Boston. Fight us.
Effie’s Kitchen - Authentic Greek food from gyros to salads and mouthwatering pita bread.
Fornax Bread - Artisan bakery serving coffee and other delights. Rozzie’s best egg sandwich contender?
Exodus Bagels - Once located in JP, now home to Roslindale! Mouthwatering bagels. There’s always a line out the door and you’ll understand why when you take your first bite.
Square Root Rozzie - Arthouse music cafe meets sandwich board pub. Live music, great beer, good food. THE place for live music in Roslindale.
Sophia’s Grotto - Regular fave for many local Rozidents. Romantically tucked away from the streets in the middle of the Village.
Tony’s Market - Butcher shop + Italian foods & specialty items. “The best” - Tony. He’s right.
Roslindale Farmers Market - It’s a community party every week! Also, it’s Boston’s oldest, longest running Farmers Market.
Distraction Brewery - Delicious locally brewed suds on the first floor of the same building that houses the Bay State Model Train Museum upstairs.
Obosá - Tasty Nigerian fare halfway up Belgrade, on the road to West Roxbury. Get the puff puff and/or the joloff rice!!
Pleasant Cafe - A classic mid-century throwback restaurant with legendary pizza.
