39 Hemenway Street Condominium

A low-rise condominium building dating from 1920, 39 Hemenway Street occupies a single-story footprint typical of early 20th-century Back Bay–Fenway infill. The masonry façade and period details are reflected inside many units through high ceilings, large thermal or bay windows, exposed brick and stained-glass accents. Residences are primarily compact one- and two-bedroom layouts and studios, several renovated with updated kitchens and baths, hardwood floors, crown moulding and generous walk-in closets. Common building services are modest and practical: on-site laundry and professional management rather than full-time concierge or doorman staff. There is no large-scale amenity program or dedicated garage listed; the property’s appeal is its central, transit-accessible location three blocks from Newbury Street and steps from colleges, Symphony Hall and the Longwood/medical area. Units frequently function as rental investments or student housing given proximity to Northeastern, Berklee and the Conservatory, and many listings note turnkey renovated interiors suitable for either owner-occupiers or investors seeking steady demand from nearby institutions.
