About this House

Exceptional 6BR | 2.5 Bath | Two Full Floors | Flexible Layout | Brookline Village | No Broker Fee | Available 9/1

Welcome to 86 Brook St #3 a truly rare rental opportunity in the heart of Brookline Village. Spanning two complete floors of a classic Brookline home, this extraordinary unit offers six large bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a half bath off the kitchen, and a layout so flexible it can be configured in multiple ways to suit your household's needs. Whether you're a large family, a professional roommate group, or anyone who simply refuses to compromise on space, this is the kind of property that doesn't come to market often.

The Space

With six bedrooms four generously sized and two truly expansive spread across two full floors, the configuration possibilities here are genuinely unusual. The unit works beautifully as a straightforward six-bedroom home, but the layout also lends itself to creative arrangements: five bedrooms with a dedicated dining room on the main floor; five bedrooms on the main floor with a massive living area plus a sixth bedroom upstairs; or five bedrooms and two separate living areas, one on each level ideal for households that want shared space on both floors. There's ample storage throughout, and the scale of the unit gives every occupant real privacy and breathing room that most Boston rentals simply can't offer.

The updated kitchen features quartz countertops, new cabinetry, gas stove, and stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher with a conveniently located half bath just off the kitchen. A full bathroom on each floor means no bottlenecks in the morning, no matter how many people are sharing the home. Gleaming hardwood and tile floors run throughout both levels, and an in-unit washer and dryer rounds out the conveniences. A private, recently rebuilt back porch off the kitchen provides a quiet outdoor retreat. Gas heat keeps both floors warm and efficient through the winter.

Parking

There is no off-street parking available with this unit.

Getting Around

Brookline Village Green Line D station is approximately 0.4 miles away a comfortable 7 8 minute walk. The D branch runs on 6 to 8-minute headways at weekday peak hours, putting the Longwood Medical Area one stop away, Kenmore in three, and Copley and Park Street a short ride beyond. The Route 66 bus travels through Brookline Village connecting Dudley Station to Harvard Square, offering Red Line access at both ends with no transfer needed. Routes 39, 65, and 66 all serve the Brookline Hills and Brookline Village station area, connecting to Jamaica Plain, the Fenway, and Kenmore. The Longwood Medical Area Beth Israel Deaconess, Brigham & Women's, Dana-Farber, and Boston Children's Hospital is one stop away, less than a 1 mile walk, making this a natural fit for medical and healthcare households.

The Neighborhood

Brookline was rated the best place to live in the country for quality of life by U.S. News and World Report in September 2025, and Brookline Village delivers on that reputation daily. Mahaniyom, the Thai tapas and cocktail destination on Washington Street, earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand in 2025 and is a neighborhood standout. The Garrison House brings innovative American cuisine and a lively underground social club to the heart of the Village, and the street is lined with beloved local options for breakfast, lunch, coffee, and dinner. Coolidge Corner with the Booksmith, the Coolidge Corner Theatre, and Cafe Fixe is a short bus ride up Beacon Street. Larz Anderson Park offers views and winter skating, and 14 off-leash Green Dog parks make Brookline a genuine haven for dog owners. For families, Brookline Public Schools were ranked the #1 school district in Boston for 2026 by Niche.
