Fully Furnished Apartment Near Fenway

St. Mary’s neighborhood marks an Eastern entrance into Brookline, very close to Boston’s Kenmore Square. St. Mary’s is sandwiched between Boston University and Frederick Law Olmsted’s well known Emerald Necklace, and is within a short walking distance to Simmons College and Emmanuel College.

Description: As you transition from Boston to St. Mary’s, you leave the chaos of the large city and quickly acknowledge the difference in the suburban neighborhoods of Brookline. Although St. Mary’s still maintains the city-like atmosphere, simple subtleties mark that you are now in Brookline. More trees and plants give color to the sidewalks and familiar stores line the streets. You feel at ease, and receive the college environment, as you walk the small strip of the St. Mary’s neighborhood.
The architecture of St. Mary’s is much like other neighborhoods in Brookline. The neighborhood alternates between buildings for housing and small stores and restaurants. There are many apartment complexes and townhouses, built mostly of different shades of red and brown brick: hence the name “Brownstones.” The front of these apartments and townhouses have beautiful landscaping, with planted flowers, gardens, bushes, and trees, establishing an enjoyable atmosphere as you walk down the streets of the St. Mary’s neighborhood. The shops and restaurants have a very different look; they are built as smaller square buildings and with much simpler designs.

Amory Playground provides large open fields, with a baseball diamond, tennis courts, and a lovely area for children to play. Halls Pond is also a charming spot, where you can enjoy peaceful time by the water at a hidden locale in Brookline. Also, in less than a mile, you can find yourself at either the gorgeous Boston Public Gardens or shopping on Newbury Street.
