Description

I am a professional health consultant with my own business and work from home. I am renting two rooms to visiting scholars, graduate students and professionals who seek a private, comfortable, conveniently located rental in Metrowest Boston, close to many amenities. The home's atmosphere is low-key, calm, and provides privacy and respite from hectic jobs and lives. I enjoy cooking, sharing occasional meals, and often purchase items for tenants (groceries, etc.) while running my own errands. A friendly Cavalier King Charles spaniel in residence welcomes everyone. Amenities similar to a B&B or homestay with stocked kitchen and bedding included. Storage for additional personal items in basement or attic is available. Rental includes off-street parking and bike storage. 25 minute walk to Babson/Olin campus, a short drive to Wellesley and Brandeis Colleges, Newton-Wellesley Hospital. 5 minute walk to Wellesley Hills MBTA commuter rail station to Boston (30 minutes to South Station, Back Bay), minutes to Mass Pike and Rt. 128. One hour door-to-door via public transportation to Northeastern University and Boston University.
