Rent Special

This is the first time we're renting so the price is a bit below market.

Brand New, Light-Filled, Furnished 2BR, 1.5BA with Parking, Charger, W/D, In Brookline Victorian

This serene, light-filled apartment, with a gorgeous slab of natural quartz as its centerpiece, sits at the base of a magnificent Victorian in the heart of Brookline, just a block from an excellent elementary school and a vibrant retail area. It's a... walk or quick bike-ride to Harvard Medical School and the Longwood Medical Area or BU, and less than 15 minutes by car to BC or Harvard Yard.

Furnished and equipped like an AirBnB, it has a driveway parking spot with an EV charger; a new washer-dryer and all other appliances; new mini-splits; heated bathroom floor; an outdoor spot that includes a stone picnic table and seats.

The slab of natural Brazilian quartz sits beneath five skylights behind an Italian leather sectional and comfy swivel chairs. Counters are sparkling quartzite. Copious storage space. Big TV and electric fireplace with color-changing shelves.

The Coolidge Corner location is unbeatable: it offers a walking lifestyle in a top-rated place to live, including an independent bookstore and cinema, Japanese supermarket, Jewish and Russian food stores, countless great Asian and other restaurants. A great cafe and bakery is just three houses away.

This home could work especially well for HMS faculty or clinical staff who come to the Boston area for a year or so and could use the nearby K-8 school (Florida Ruffin Ridley), which has an English Language Learners program for Hebrew speakers, or the wonderful synagogue nursery school less than a block away.

One entrance passes by a beautiful garden and down limestone steps beneath skylights and past climbing vines; the other goes past decorative stone work to the driveway parking spot. (Please see video.)

The master bedroom has a king bed and two closets; the other bedroom only has a desk so far and can be furnished depending on occupants. Because we just converted our house from single-family to two-family and this is a firsttime rental, we're offering it at a little below market rate.

Approximate Utility Cost: Not sure but likely low. Water, trash, sewer included. Tenant pays electric, gas.
