Apartment Description

Property Id: 2750759

Private 1 bed 1 bath for rent in Watertown (near Watertown High School) with a 1-year lease starting September 1st, 2026. DM me with a blurb about yourself and what you are looking for if you have serious interest (let's not... waste each other's time).

# About the place
The unit has a multi-floor layout with plenty of space. The first floor is a dedicated entrance and mudroom. The second floor features the common areas (fully furnished kitchen, living room, and dining room), along with your private bedroom and bathroom. I live on the third floor.
- Rent: $1900/month (including heat + water).
- Electricity + internet is split (~$80/person/month).
- In-unit washer and dryer.
- Driveway parking.
- 3-min walk to bus 71 (to Harvard), 8-min walk to bus 70 (to Central), and 15-min walk to bus 57 and other express buses to Boston.
- No smoking, no drugs, no pets.

# A little bit about me
The owner of the place. 30s working professional in tech industry who likes minimalism and low-key living style. I spend more time outside (working in-office/hanging) than inside. I enjoy the occasional casual gathering with friends on weekends but generally keep things quiet. I love rock climbing, hiking, biking, puzzles, board games. And last but not least, I enjoy exploring new food restaurants because it's the universal love language.

# What I'm looking for
- Someone with a compatible lifestyle and will treat this place with respect.
- Someone with a common sense of taking the trash/recycle out when it's full and not having a rager at 11pm.
- Someone who will leave the common area as how they find it (aka clean up after themselves).
- Someone that appreciate direct and constructive discussion so we can both build trust and shared understanding.
- We can be friends (or not) so long as we maintain a harmonious and friendly living situation.
