Fisher Hill - Brookline, MA Area Guide

Family-friendly atmosphere in the middle of a bustling city

Close-Knit Community Great Location Suburban

Located 10 miles west of Boston along Boylston Street, Fisher Hill is a residential slice of Brookline. Although it’s a part of the bustling metro area, Fisher Hill maintains its suburban atmosphere featuring tree-lined streets, parks, and a tight-knit community. Fisher Hill Reservoir Park and Fisher Hill Historic District round out the outdoor recreation opportunities in town. Additional outdoor fun is available just outside of town at athletic fields, the Brookline Reservoir Park, and John B. Waldstein Playground. Fisher Hill’s residential streets remain relatively free of commercial developments, but the renowned restaurants in the surrounding Boston areas are all at an arm’s reach from town. Renters lucky enough to call Fisher Hill home have options of apartments, single-family homes, and condos located in or just outside of town.
