$599,000

122 Riverway, Unit 14

Year built: 1915

Bedrooms: 1

Baths: 1 full

Taxes: $3,870 (2017)

Condo fee: $381.25 a month

The scene stealers here are custom built-ins in the dining area and huge windows overlooking a recently improved section of The Riverway. “There are nine windows, which makes it feel much larger,’’ said Daniel Tully, the listing broker. The updated kitchen has stainless appliances and granite counters. Located in a building with 121 units, this 537-square-foot front-facing corner property has hardwoods and high ceilings.

$729,000

566 Commonwealth Ave., Unit 1002

Year built: 1968

Bedrooms: 2

Baths: 2 full

Condo fee: $1,758 a month (includes taxes)

Located at the intersection of Beacon Street and Commonwealth, this building looks out over Kenmore Square with a view that’s “killer,’’ the listing broker, Jason Boltz, said — but a proposed project could change that. A 130-square-foot balcony off the living room has plenty of room for furniture. There’s air conditioning, a new pool, attractive common areas, and sound-dampening windows. Largely owner-occupied. Undergrads are not allowed.
