OVERVIEW
Perched on a hill just south of Beacon Street and north of Boylston Street (Route 9), this area offers historic homes with stunning views of Boston. Many residences in Fisher Hill date back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, filling this area with a mix of Victorian, Colonial, and Tudor-style homes. While most of Fisher Hill retains its historic charm, a few high-end luxury homes and townhouses have been added in recent years, blending modern amenities with classic Brookline sophistication.
Evolving Landscapes Fisher Hill
Formerly the site of Cardinal Cushing and Newbury College, a five acre parcel at the crest of the namesake hill is now a luxurious senior housing development that opened its doors in late 2024. The large new buildings bring new life to what had become a tired campus after the enrollment from Newbury College steeply declined.
Across the street from the Newbury, the decommissioned Fisher Hill Reservoir was transformed into a community park in 2016. This beautifully landscaped green space offers residents walking paths, open fields, and a small playground.
Less than a half mile from Fisher Hill is the commercial center of the area, Cleveland Circle. Cleveland Circle is technically in the Boston neighborhood of Brighton but offers services and amenities to the residents of Fisher Hill within walking distance. A slightly longer walk gains residents access to Washington Square which has a more robust selection of fine dining options.
