Wollaston Quincy Info & Homes for Sale

Wollaston, one of the many neighborhoods in Quincy MA. Wollaston Quincy is a beautiful and convenient neighborhood for the commuter, the professional and families. The Wollaston area of Quincy is one of the first settled and as result became a safe place for Boston professionals to find themselves in. In its early days, the dawn of “the old colony railroad” provided easy access to Wollaston from Boston. This area became and still is the ideal location for those who want to work in the city while living in more quiet and clean conditions. The rail shaped Wollaston into a home for the first versions of the Boston commuter. Many of these citizens built the neighborhood up with large, Victorian style homes to come home to after working in the city.

You’ll find that these homes still stand intact with their original woodwork in the beautiful neighborhood of Wollaston Hill. Since then, the commuting ideal has become the norm and now Wollaston is a highly popular residential neighborhood with vital commercial districts nearby. Now, in place of “the old colony railroad” there is the MBTA red line that keeps the convenience of whisking you away to Boston in a moment’s notice.
