Neighborhood

Biking along the Charles River, strolling around the Fens, walking to Red Sox games—it’s easy to see why Kenmore is one of Boston’s most sought-after communities. Boston University’s campus dominates the western half of the neighborhood, making it an ideal spot for students to find apartments (Berklee College of Music and Boston Conservatory are very close by as well).

Fenway Park is just a few blocks away, making it quick and easy to walk to the legendary stadium and the bars and restaurants surrounding it. The endless shopping and dining of Back Bay are a short walk to the east as well, and convenient access to the Massachusetts Turnpike and multiple MBTA rail stations makes it easy to reach anywhere in the region.
