Two 4 bedroom apartments at 285 Lamartine Street, Jamaica Plain
A three-unit building put up in 2024, a short walk from the Green Street Orange Line. Two of the three apartments are available from August 31, 2026. Each takes a full floor: four real bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a washer and dryer inside the apartment, central air, private outdoor space and one off-street parking space included.
No broker fee and no last month's rent, so moving in costs twice the rent rather than the four times that is normal in Boston at this price.
The two apartments
About the building
Three stories finished in 2024, one apartment to a floor, in blue-grey clapboard with white trim. Bay windows stack up the front of the building, which is what makes the living rooms as bright as they are. There is a paved walkway and planted beds at the front, lantern lighting either side of the entry, and a fire department connection on the front wall, which is the visible half of the full sprinkler system running through the building.
