Spotlights
The neighborhoods surrounding Coolidge Corner are filled with beautifully designed and maintained apartment buildings, and CHR buildings are often mistaken for condominium buildings.
All of our apartment buildings offer easy access to Coolidge Corner or Washington Square and are meticulously landscaped by Chestnut Hill Realty's horticulture department with a variety of vegetation, including trees, shrubs and flowers.
St. Paul Gardens was built in 1953 during one of HUD's first moderate income programs by the Levin family, who sold it to Chestnut Hill Realty in 1977. The complex has 80 one and two bedroom apartments in eleven three-story buildings, arranged in four clusters on 1.74 acres bordered by Alton St. and Saint Paul St.
The buildings have brick facades and are shaded by fully-grown Sycamore trees.
There are 80 parking spaces, ten garages, and on-site laundry facilities.
Chestnut Hill Realty has renovated many units since the purchase and upgraded entrances and hallways.
