Heart of hip JP, sunny 2BDR condo top flr, fully de-leaded

Boston, Massachusetts, United States
Rates from USD $3203 | Monthly

Apartment or Condo | Entire Home | House Sitting Negotiable
Available Dates:
From September 1, 2026 until May 1, 2027

Description

Walk or bus at the end of the street to Longwood (13mins), Northeastern, Mass Art, Harvard Medical or take a stroll around Jamaica Pond, the Arnold Arboretum or Franklin Park - all 5 minutes walk away as we're in the heart of Boston's beautiful Emerald Necklace parklands. Dine at Jamaica Plain's wonderful variety of cafes, restaurants and close by pubs or maybe just kick back on your private back deck and savour a bird's eye view of our landscaped, tree-filled garden! Minutes safe walking to Green St T station (Orange Line) along the SW corridor park (ideal for bikes), my sunny top floor triple-decker apartment offers all the pleasures of inner urban living along with the peace and tranquillity of the countryside. The 907 square foot apartment features bay windows, polished hardwood floors, front and rear private decks, economical & environmentally-friendly heat pump heating and cooling that'll keep you toasty in winter & cool in summer - AND it's certified lead-free. That means that unlike most other rentals in Boston, it's child-safe in that neither you nor your child will lose any IQ points by exposing yourself to neurotoxic lead (very common in old Boston homes!) Free, easy on-street parking (no permit), 5mins walk to Curtis Hall Community Centre (low cost pool, gym, classes) & Boston Public Library, plenty of basement storage space for furniture etc. Groceries (walking) - Happy (5minutes), Wholefoods (20m), StopNShop (30m). No smokers please. Pets negotiable (with cleaning fee).
