Description

Seeking to rent a separate-entrance stylish STUDIO apartment just 5 minute walk to Arlington Center & Spy Pond with public transportation to major universities within the block? Enjoy a queen bed, European tiled floors, sizable bathroom with bathtub/shower combo, living area/work area, and a large fully equipped kitchen with everything you'll need or want. And plenty of storage and closet space. This spacious studio apartment is sure to please. We’re delighted you are considering this home for your home away. I look forward to connecting with you! ABOUT ARLINGTON AND OUR HOME’S Location! Location! Location! Our property is conveniently situated in a quiet area several blocks from the heart of Arlington Center and is a 5-minute walk to Spy Pond and the Minuteman bike/walking trail. Arlington is a safe suburban town with a chic small-city vibe and an abundance of natural beauty. Arlington is consistently voted one of the best suburbs in the U.S. It's friendly, hip, easy to get around, and just 6 miles west of Boston with its outstanding Universities. Harvard and Tufts are a 10–15-minute drive or 20 or so-minute bike ride. MIT, BU and Boston College are just a bit further. Public Transportation to Harvard Square (and other Cambridge neighborhoods) as well as to the Alewife Train Station (Red Line to Boston) stops near our home. See the picture of the map for bike, bus, walk times to Harvard Square and the Alewife MBTA. THE LIVING ENVIRONMENT Delight in the buzz of nature as you walk past our much-adored English-style gardens, blooming with fragrance and bursting with color. Once inside the home, natural light from four windows combines with the vitality of overhead lighting from daylight bulbs that allows the roomy studio to pop with color, while the stand-alone lamps provide a peaceful glow at night. Your living space feels simultaneously vibrant yet serene. The well-appointed kitchen has a stainless-steel sink with disposal, full-size refrigerator/freezer, and oven/stove. These are complemented by beautifully vibrant red countertops, white Italian-tiled floors, and ample upper and lower white cabinets that together create a European vibe. A myriad of modern stainless-steel electric appliances and cookware, utensils and dishware make cooking, sipping your coffee, and dining a pleasurable experience. Expansive countertops decked with two high top chairs, provide a simple, yet functional, design that doubles as an eating and home office area. Retire to the expansive, cushy sofa or ponder your amazement in finding comfort from armless (yes, no arms), back-pleasing chairs as you and a friend cozy up with tea or you get lost in a book. The sleeping area is outfitted with a queen bed, that is host to 4 oversized pull-out drawers, a headboard, nightstand and a matching dresser.. This abode wouldn’t be complete without an option to de-stress, chill-out, get lost in time with a good soak in the porcelain tub or an invigorating or massaging splash from the ultra, double- head shower. And, when you’re done, whisk the wet away with our luxurious new bamboo cotton towel sets. You’ll find plenty of counter, cabinet and drawer space for all your essentials too. WHAT ELSE? • There is a separate heating control for the apartment. • All linens, bedding, towels are provided should you prefer not to provide your own. We are happy to share our laundry facilities or laundry services are nearby. When you live here you will instantly settle into the homey vibe and convenience of having everything right at your fingertips. We make sure of that! We look forward to showing you your potential new home-away. If you live at a distance, people have had great success choosing our home after a video walk-through and extensive chat. Best to you on your journey!
