Description

This 144 square footage room on Boston's Allston is a clean, spacious and glossy room in a 6-bedroom apartment which is currently unfurnished, but it can be furnished for an additional fee. About this Home This rare find in Boston’s sought-after neighborhood of Allston will not be on the market for long. Large enough for a big family, this 1619-square-foot, six-bedroom, two-bathroom duplex is an ideal home for people commuting across the Charles River to Cambridge and Harvard University. Spacious, sunlit bedrooms provide ample space for queen-size beds, nightstands, and workspaces. This triple-decker apartment also features beautiful hardwood flooring throughout, a fully-applianced eat-in kitchen, and a large backyard. If you are looking for lots of space at an affordable price in one of Boston’s best neighborhoods, look no further. An active and diverse neighborhood sandwiched between Brighton and Fenway-Kenmore, Allston is one of the best places to live in Boston if you travel frequently for work. The Massachusetts Turnpike runs through the middle of Allston, splitting the densely populated area into two. With a median age of 29, Allston is a popular neighborhood for college students and young professionals. Everything you need is within walking distance in Allston. A short stroll down to Packard’s Corner will lead to numerous shops and restaurants. Brighton Avenue serves as the main drag of Allston’s vibrant and ethnically diverse commercial district. Here you will find furniture stores, boutique consignment shops, and some of the best Korean food in Boston. This apartment is located less than one mile from the Harvard Avenue subway station and approximately two blocks from the Route 66 bus station at the corner of North Harvard Street and Coolidge Road. This smoke-free apartment can be furnished upon request. Other features include WiFi, radiator heating, and paid parking with resident decal. There is also a communal laundry area located on the premises. Planning to live with friends or have the space all to yourself? You have the option of renting this entire apartment. Take the first step in making this beautiful place your next home by booking a tour today. Your safety and comfort are our top priorities! To ensure this, we ask all our new members to complete a background and credit check, as well as electronically sign a separate residency agreement. Just a heads up, you'll need to share your ID and Social Security Number (for those in the US) with us. We'll shoot over the agreement right after you book, and we kindly ask you to sign it quickly to guarantee your room. For your credit, we're looking for scores above 550-650, depending on your city and we'll need a clean criminal record too (this doesn't apply to DC). If you meet all the requirements, you will receive the agreement which you need to sign within 24 hours. This property is tailored for long-term stays and is not like a traditional short-term rental. For example, we do not provide towels, linens, or other similar amenities. Guests are required to bring these items with them. We hope this setup meets your needs for an extended stay, and we look forward to hosting you!...

How rent is calculated
Daily basis
This listing’s rent is calculated on a daily basis. For the first and last months of your stay, you’ll only pay for the exact number of days in your rental period — just like a hotel. We call this a Daily contract type. To confirm your rental, you’ll need to pay one month’s rent in full. Any excess rent you pay for the first month will be subtracted from the next month’s rent.
Cancellation policy

Strict cancellation

If you cancel:

  • Within 24 hours of confirmation – Full refund of first month’s rent
  • After 24 hours of confirmation – No refund

  2. Click Apply to rent.
  3. Fill in a quick rental application and send an intro message.
  4. Add your supporting documents and payment details to pre-authorize a potential payment.
  5. If the landlord accepts your rental application, we’ll collect payment to confirm your stay. If they don’t, your payment will be automatically canceled.

At HousingAnywhere, in-person viewings are not supported — so everyone has an equal chance to rent, no matter where you are in the world. To help you make an informed decision, we recommend:

Keeping your conversation on HousingAnywhere protects your privacy and helps you avoid scams. All your messages are also saved in one place for easy access and as a record of your agreements.

Once your rental is confirmed, we’ll share the landlord’s contact info so you can arrange your move-in.

After your rental is confirmed on HousingAnywhere, you and the landlord will receive each other’s contact details. You can then contact them outside our platform, or continue messaging on HousingAnywhere. You can pay future months’ rent and other rental costs using our payment request feature.

Tenant Protection is our service to help you rent with peace of mind. We hold all payments you make through our platform before move-in, including the first month's rent and any deposit. After you arrive, you have 48 hours to check that the place is as you expected. We only send your money to the landlord if everything is okay.
