Here’s What You Can Buy for $300,000 Right Now

From a one-bedroom in Brighton to a modern two-bedroom in Chelsea.

Homebuyers with a budget of $300,000 could probably swing a decent single-family home in the suburbs. In and around the city, though, and that budget tells a different story.

While it’s still possible to score a place to live in the $300,000 range in Boston, homes at this price point often lack in the square footage department. Still, there are gems to be found in Brighton, Dorchester, and beyond.

Here, find five examples of what you can buy for $300,000 right now.
