Description

This 136-square-foot room on Boston's Inman Square is a clean, spacious and glossy room in a 4-bedroom apartment. The furnishing status may, or may not be adjustable for an additional fee, upon a request, depending on the availability. About this Home If you are looking for a home in Cambridge with a lot of space at a reasonable price, take a look at this four-bedroom, one-bathroom shared apartment. Located in Inman Square, a small mostly commercial neighborhood roughly three miles outside of Boston, this 1101-square-foot unit features antique hardwood floors, freshly painted walls, high ceilings, large windows for natural light, HVAC heating, and lots of closets for storage. All four bedrooms can accommodate queen-size beds, nightstands, and dressers or desks. The tile-floor bathroom offers a new sink and dual-flush toilet, lots of cabinets, a walk-in shower, and wainscot paneling on the walls. A spacious, newly remodeled, eat-in kitchen boasts name-brand stainless appliances, including a microwave and dishwasher, a large pantry, and can easily hold a dining table with four chairs. Similar to other neighborhoods in Cambridge and Boston, Inman Square refers to both the busy commercial intersection and the small residential district you will find it in. A short drive away from both Harvard University and Downtown Boston, Inman Square is home to an eclectic demographic that consists of college students, families, and working professionals. A popular retail destination for Cambridge residents, Inman Square offers plenty of local restaurants and shopping options along Cambridge Street, which serves as the main commercial thoroughfare for this friendly, walkable neighborhood. Inman Square is unique in its noticeable Brazilian and Portuguese influence that can be seen and tasted in the many storefronts that occupy this 1.8-acre neighborhood. A lack of direct access to Boston’s rapid transit system keeps the foot traffic to a manageable level and preserves the charming aspects of this friendly, tree-lined neighborhood. Despite its size, Inman Square does boast a decent selection of nightlife options that include live music venues and trendy bars. This charming apartment is situated on the top floor of an iconic triple-decker home less than two blocks from Cambridge Street, where you will find local stores, restaurants, and supermarkets. If you are looking to take advantage of Boston’s rapid transit system, you will need to head down to another popular commercial district known as Central Square. A ten-minute walk will get you to Central station for the Red Line train, which will get you up to Harvard University or over to Downtown. This smoke-free unit can be furnished or unfurnished before moving in and includes WiFi and a large flat-screen TV. Your safety and comfort are our top priorities! To ensure it, we ask all our new members to complete a background and credit check and electronically sign a residency agreement. You'll need to share your ID and Social Security Number (for those in the US) with us. We'll shoot over the agreement 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. 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! The descriptions may not always reflect the most up-to-date details. If a specific feature or amenity is important to you, kindly reach out for confirmation....
