As listed on Zillow, here are the five most expensive homes for sale in Boston:

  1. The top slot goes to the $10,700,000 penthouse unit on in the Burrage Mansion on 314 Commonwealth Ave. The unit has direct elevator access, four fireplaces, a spacious private roof deck with a hot tub, 5 parking spaces and views of the Back Bay skyline. This 5 bed, 4 bath spot is in a building professionally managed with a part time concierge.
  2. With 8 beds and 7 baths this Beacon Hill brownstone structure is great for families or a split-condo setup. The $8,500,000 potential home was built in 1890.
  3. More Commonwealth Avenue real estate but with a lesser pocket burn. Apartment 1 on 245 will cost you $6,995,000 and in return you’ll get elevator access to each floor, a private terrace with a snowmelt system and 2 walk-in pantries.
  4. Steps from Beacon Hill’s Public Garden, 5 Byron St. residence offers a Zen garden and 360-degree city vistas. There’s also a dressing room, luxe marble bath, loft-style office and 4 and-a-half baths. $6,950,000 will do the trick.
  5. One more Commonwealth Avenue property. Imagine being among members of such an esteemed class? This historic Peabody and Stearns architecture at the Harvard Club is being turned into 5 luxury condominiums. Unit 3, for $6,650,000, offers single-floor living with 3-plus bedrooms and a private rear balcony. Owners also get the perk of Harvard Club membership.
