What's your South Boston home worth?

South Boston's older housing is mostly wood-frame triple-deckers, two-families and attached rowhouses from the late 1800s and early 1900s, packed tightly along the lettered streets (running out to P Street) and the numbered East and West streets. The blocks around Thomas Park and Telegraph Hill hold some of the more ornate Victorian homes. On the west side, near Andrew Square, Dorchester Avenue and the Broadway Red Line stop, former industrial land has been rebuilt with mid-rise condo and apartment buildings. Many triple-deckers have been converted to condos, and some have been fully rebuilt.

With so many renovations and new builds, buyers should ask about permits, warranties on new construction and the quality of conversion work. Small two- and three-unit associations often run informally, so request the budget, insurance and any shared repair history. Parking is mostly on the street, and some low-lying streets near Day Boulevard and the waterfront can fall within flood zones.
