A unique find - at home in Boston's hippest neighborhood. You'll enjoy an actual home with a deck, patio and garden for your kids to run around in. Such privacy in the center of Boston is quite rare. It's a short trip from the airport and close to the center of town and public transportation. Stay in a wonderful Victorian farmhouse that offers rare tranquility right in Boston. It is located on a fenced 1/4 acre property, shared with two other condominiums in the midst of a beautiful garden on a very quiet two block street. The house has all the amenities you would expect of a great home. There are four bedrooms. Three are on the second floor and share a bath. They have very comfortable queen beds. The Master bedroom with a king bed and bath are on the third floor. If you need more room, I have a single Ikea bed as well as an air bed. The first floor has a living room and an open floor plan kitchen/dining area. The deck off the kitchen leads down to the patio and the large garden. If you have kids, the garden is a great place to play while the adults are having drinks on the deck. You are only a 5 minute walk to the neighborhood center with great restaurants, coffee shops and the like. The nearby bus line and subway can take you directly to major museums and historic downtown in 15 minutes. Access is unrestricted except for owner's closet and storage room. The house is all yours until departure. I or a neighbor are always at the ready to help you with anything. People want to live and visit Jamaica Plain because it has a hip vibe, is close to downtown, and has the most parks in the entire metropolitan area. My house is on a short two block street with primarily row houses. It's at the foot of Sumner Hill which is filled with Victorian Mansions. It's fun to stroll around and imagine upper class life in the late 1800's. There is also a house dating from the 1700's on the main drag - Center Street. That's where the action is and it's only a 5 minute walk from my house. The Arnold Arboretum and Franklin Park total over 500 acres of open space and are less than a 10 minute walk. They are part of the Emerald .Necklace Greenway which was designed by Olmstead - who also designed Central Park. The wonderful lake, Jamaica Pond, is also nearby. Most of my guests love to take a walk or run in the Arboretum. The bus to the art museums, Symphony Hall and the medical area is a block away and the Orange Line T is a 7 minute walk. The Orange Line will take you to the Back Bay shopping areas (10 minute ride) as well as to the historic downtown sites in less than 15 minutes. In fact, the Orange Line exit is in the Old State House where the Boston Massacre took place- a seminal event the War of Independence.
