Description

Looking for a place where you can actually get your work done—and actually want to come home at the end of the day? Welcome to your new home base in Boston’s Dorchester neighborhood! This top-floor, fully furnished condo is designed for academics, visiting scholars, researchers, and professionals who value both productivity and comfort. The Space: Set on a quiet, tree-lined street, this two-bedroom, two-bath condo is your launchpad for both work and relaxation. The main bedroom features a queen bed, blackout shades, and an en-suite bath with a walk-in glass shower, rain head, and bidet seat (it’s the little things). The second bedroom is a flexible, multipurpose room: it doubles as a private office with a spacious desk, ergonomic chair, 27" monitor, and a laptop stand—plus reliable gigabit fiber internet (wired and WiFi throughout). Need to host a collaborator, friend, or family member? The pull-out loveseat easily sleeps one more. Live-Work Amenities: 1G Verizon Fios internet—stream, Zoom, upload, and download with no lag Dedicated work space—office desk, chair, monitor, and strong coffee available Fully equipped kitchen—gas range, air fryer oven, microwave, dishwasher, full fridge, coffee maker (K-Cup & carafe), all the utensils and spices you’ll need In-unit washer/dryer—because no one’s got time for the laundromat Linens, towels, cleaning supplies, and household essentials—just bring your suitcase Streaming-ready Apple TVs—log into your favorite apps for a well-earned break Central air/heat with touchscreen controls & Apple Home integration Off-street parking spot—never circle the block after a long day on campus Recharge & Refresh: Start your morning with coffee on the large, private deck—sunny, quiet, and perfect for clearing your head (or prepping your lecture notes). Need to blow off steam after grading? The second bedroom is also a mini home gym: exercise bike, adjustable dumbbells, kettlebell, resistance bands, yoga mats, and a pull-up bar—all ready for your workout routine. Feeling social? The open-plan living/dining area is a great spot for casual dinners, research chats, or a celebratory glass of wine after submitting that article. Neighborhood & Location: Dorchester’s St. Mark’s area is diverse, friendly, and full of character. You’re a 7-minute walk from the MBTA Red Line (Ashmont Station), making it a breeze to reach Harvard, MIT, UMass Boston, Tufts, Longwood Medical, and just about every other Boston campus. Hungry? Try the local Italian spots (Tavolo, Via Cannuccia), Lower Mills Tavern, Yellow Door for tacos, or takeout from Pat’s Pizza, Bred Gourmet (burgers), and Kapow Thai. Dozens of great Vietnamese, Caribbean, and Chinese restaurants are nearby—don’t worry, you’ll never run out of new places to try. Recharge in Nature: Bike, jog, or stroll the Neponset River Trail. Hike the Blue Hills. Or just relax at Malibu Beach or Castle Island—easy access to outdoor escapes right from your door. Extras & The Little Things: Electronic locks—no key-wrangling, just a code Video doorbell—see who’s at the door without going downstairs Apple TV in every room for your streaming needs Ashmont MBX in-ceiling speakers (AirPlay your music, set the mood) Plenty of street parking for guests (watch the street sweeping signs!) Flexible lease terms (one to nine months)—ask if you need something special About Your Host: Boston born-and-raised, I’m here if you need anything—from a maintenance question to restaurant recs (or translation services if you get lost in the accent). I want your stay to be productive, comfortable, and a little bit fun. No stuffiness, no drama—just an honest place to call home while you’re in town for your sabbatical, research, residency, or big adventure. Have questions? Want more pics? Just ask. I look forward to welcoming you!
