Description

Located in a converted carriage house, this charming duplex apartment is situated in a lovely, quiet New England neighborhood, just outside of a cute commercial district with great dining, shopping and entertainment (including an independent movie theatre and an independent bookstore). Looking at the picture of the house, the apartment has a private entrance located on the left side of the house off the deck and garden area. The home is located on a hill, so the bedroom downstairs remains above-ground. The home is conveniently located less than 5 miles to Boston’s financial and shopping areas, and a short walk to Coolidge Corner, the Longwood Medical area, a wide variety of shops, coffee shops and restaurants, parks, and public transportation. It is also convenient to area academic institutions, Cambridge, the Western Suburbs, and the highways. Lay-out: The first floor contains an open floor plan with a kitchen-dining area (20'x13’). It has antique maple floors, and the kitchen is fully equipped with all modern appliances and dishes, pots and pans, etc. There is also an in-unit clothes washer and dryer. Downstairs there is a room with a double bed (16’x8’), a small office, and a full bath with tub/shower. Blankets, linens, and towels are provided. Occupancy: The unit is ideal for a couple or just one person. There is one bedroom, and a second room downstairs that can be used as an office or a sitting room. Also, we love animals, but we will not rent to families with pets due to past experiences. Lots To Do and See: Beautiful location for history, sports, and outdoor activities: Near the Emerald Necklace, the Arnold Arboretum, Boston’s Public Garden, the Esplanade and Charles River, and the Freedom Trail; Red Sox & Celtics; Harvard, MIT, BU, BC & all of the other Boston-area colleges and universities; Fall leaf-peeping, Winter lights, Spring blossoms, Summer outdoors. One can easily get to the theater, symphony, art galleries, and world music, as well as great museums - art, science, history, children’s museum, aquarium, and many historic homes to view. If you are interested in the apartment, please describe a bit about yourself, your needs, and your interests. We tend to get a lot of replies and need this information to sort through the requests for information and showings.
