About this property

Home away from home for work or graduate school.

This is your new home. The apartment is half of a totally renovated, stately, side-by-side, two-family home two blocks from Arlington Center. On a quiet dead-end street that ends at Spy Pond, experience the access and energy of Arlington Center while enjoying the warmth of a friendly neighborhood. The home is three floors, fully furnished. The third floor is semi-finished for storage or perhaps a workout space. Downstairs includes a gracious foyer with a beautiful staircase, plus a back staircase, a living room with a bay window and beautifully tiled fireplace (not working), a dining room, and a large, newer, eat-in kitchen with loads of cabinets and all the essential dishes, etc.

Upstairs are two bedrooms, one with a queen and one with a double and a single. New bath with shower. Plus an office for one person. A brand new porch serves as the entryway and a delightful place for morning coffee. The side patio has a small garden area, table, and chairs for outdoor dining. There is a large basement with laundry and lots of storage and space.

The apartment comes with parking for two cars in a driveway one house away. There is no on-street, overnight parking in Arlington. At the end of the street, a very short walk, there is a bus stop to Alewife with other bus lines two blocks to Arlington Center. Room in garage for bike storage. Or perhaps your canoe or kayak to experience Spy Pond, which is 100’ from the garage.

No pets. No smoking. Longer term rentals are an option for a lower rate.

The most pleasant stay
We had the most pleasant stay in Arlington. Martha and her family are the most kind and friendly hosts we have ever experienced. The house was very spacious, newly renovated and beautifully decorated with plenty of space for our family of four. The girls loved playing on the dead end street, located in a very kid-friendly neighborhood. We enjoyed the summer evenings in the backyard and had good AC indoors. The funitures and beds were very comfortable. If we ever come to Boston again, this is the place to be.

Gorgeous & comfortable
Myself and another travel nurse stayed here for three months and I can't recommend it enough. The hosts are very responsive and friendly. A huge benefit was off street parking for two cars and the nearness of the Alewife T station for getting into the city. The beds were very comfortable, too!
