Overview

Dartmouth Square Condominium is a distinctive 60-unit community set within two historic converted schoolhouses—the former Rice School (built 1868–1869) and the Bancroft School—on the cobblestone block of Appleton Street where Back Bay meets the South End's coveted "Golden Triangle." Homes here are prized for their architectural character, with soaring ceilings, oversized windows, and abundant natural light throughout. Over the last 12 months, four sales closed at a median price of $1,375,000 (about $1,545 per square foot), with units moving quickly at an average of just 14 days on market.

Unit Types & Layouts

The community spans a range of layouts, from generous one-bedroom homes (some around 750–1,164 SF) to one-bedroom-plus-loft/study configurations and two-bedroom residences. Corner units are common, delivering dual exposures and exceptional light. Several homes feature loft-style second bedrooms, parlor-level layouts, and multi-level penthouse duplexes with private decks and panoramic views. Two-bedroom homes typically offer 1 to 1.5 baths, while renovated penthouses may include two full baths. Coffered ceilings, exposed beams, and architectural detailing distinguish many of the schoolhouse conversions.
