Tucked quietly between the Back Bay and South End, Six Edgarly Place is a rare find: a boutique mid-rise building featuring just nine residential condominiums in one of Boston’s most tucked-away neighborhoods: Bay Village. The red brick façade and green-trimmed windows speak to the building’s timeless architecture, with a street presence that blends seamlessly into the charming, gas-lit ambiance of Bay Village’s narrow one-way lanes.
Originally built in the early 20th century and later converted, the property also includes seven commercial condo spaces on the lower floors, keeping the residential units perched above the quiet tree-lined street. With no large lobbies or hotel-like foot traffic, Six Edgarly Place offers the feel of a private, well-maintained brownstone with the scale of a boutique building.
Its location, just steps from the Public Garden, the South End’s Restaurant Row, and the conveniences of Back Bay Station, makes it one of the most walkable addresses in the city.

Each of the nine residential units is distinct, with layouts ranging from one- to three-bedrooms and square footages that reflect traditional proportions- not overbuilt or cookie-cutter. High ceilings, hardwood floors, and large windows are standard, and public record suggests that most units include two full bathrooms and have been updated over the years to reflect modern tastes.
Units like #401 and #505 have sold in recent years for over $1.3M, indicating a high level of finish and desirability. While detailed interior layouts vary between units, public records show that most residences offer two to three bedrooms and two full baths, suggesting spacious floor plans and a comfortable living experience.
There is no garage parking on-site, but rental parking is typically available nearby; a common setup for Bay Village buildings of this size and vintage. The association has 4 parking spaces directly in front of the building that in December of every year are auctioned off to the highest bidder and additional rental garage parking at a discount rate is available nearby at the Revere Hotel.
Bay Village has long been considered one of Boston’s best-kept secrets- a quiet, tightly held neighborhood with a central location and residential character. At Six Edgarly Place, that charm is paired with low turnover, strong owner occupancy, and proximity to cultural institutions, fine dining, and commuter rail all within a few short blocks.
With just nine units, opportunities to buy into the building are rare, making 40 Winchester ideal for buyers seeking a long-term residence or pied-à-terre that feels removed from the hustle of the city but is truly in the center of it all.
Whether you're downsizing from a brownstone or upgrading from a rental, 40 Winchester Street offers a refined, low-key alternative to Boston’s larger luxury buildings with just enough history, charm, and exclusivity to stand out.
