About This Apartment

Available beginning July 1st.

This is a great deal in a wonderful living environment!

Two professional women (in their 40s & 50s), seek another responsible, professional woman of comparable age to share our 3-bedroom, pretty, historic home located in a true community neighborhood. This is a first floor house apartment.

This is an ideal pondside JP location. Very short walk to everything: (under 5 mins.) to Center Street stores & restaurants, Harvest Co-Op, green line #39 bus stop, Jamaica Pond, and the Arnold Arboretum. A scenic 15 min walk to the Orange Line: either Forest Hills or Green Street T stations.

We are on a safe, lovely, tree lined street with kind, friendly neighbors who care enough to meet and get to know each other. (including wonderful ones upstairs from us) It is a welcoming, supportive, closely knit community. A true neighborhood with block parties, "good cause", and creative events. In addition, our back yard offers a refreshing semi-private green space with flowering gardens for relaxing.

Plenty of free on-street parking. (no permit required)

The house is a wonderful combination of charming detail from its 1902 origin and modern renovations. Newly refinished hardwood floors, living room fireplace, window seat, built-in cabinets, front & back porches, dining room used as office space for us all, and a colorful, homey eat-in kitchen with two pantries and plenty of counter space.

The available bedroom is quiet and very sunny with two large windows that get direct morning and mid-day light. It is a bit smaller measuring 9'x12' and is freshly painted (pale lilac.) There is also a bit of allotted space for a desk in a separate shared space.

Amenities include washer/dryer, Comcast hook-up, wireless, and jacks for landlines.

About us: We are both baby boomers, on the younger side, who like to have fun, stay fit, and sometimes be a little silly. We really value honesty, being responsible and keeping common spaces clean and comfortable for us all. We love our home and are happy living with others who enjoy a balance of community and privacy, and who like creating a peaceful home together. We work in gardening/garden design, public health research, media relations, and music. We enjoy nature, the arts, dance, yoga, and more. We are committed to holistic health, personal/spiritual growth and exploration, social justice, creative expression, and care for the earth. As a next housemate, we welcome your fresh energy and new interests.

There is some shared storage space throughout the house and a small amount of basement storage. We have some room for your new additions of decor, utensils, etc.

Rent: $547/month

1/3 utilities: gas, electric, Comcast..

First month, last month and security deposit required.

If this sounds like a possible match for you, would you kindly write and tell us about yourself plus a phone number and best times to reach you?

Many thanks.
