This 158 square footage room on Boston's Mattapan 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 Located approximately five miles south of Downtown Boston, this four-bedroom, one-bathroom shared apartment is a perfect home for working professionals moving into the Mattapan neighborhood. At an impressive 1105-square-feet, this second-floor unit comes fully loaded with brilliant hardwood floors, high ceilings, large windows, radiator heating, and spacious rooms. This charming Mattapan apartment also features a front balcony and a fenced-in yard. Three sunlit bedrooms accommodate queen-size beds with enough room left over for nightstands and dressers or desks. The fourth bedroom is large enough for a twin-size bed and dresser. An updated, eat-in kitchen comes equipped with full-size appliances and a large food pantry. The living area is warm and inviting with several windows and plenty of room for a coffee table, chairs, sofa, and TV stand. With good schools, walkable streets, and proximity to well-known landmarks and attractions, Mattapan is one of Boston’s best residential neighborhoods for families. This neighborhood is also home to numerous college students that attend nearby Boston College in Brighton. Mattapan offers a mix of iconic triple-deckers and single-family homes, as well as low-rise apartment buildings. Roughly translated, “a good place to be,” Mattapan today is a diverse neighborhood with Caribbean roots that trace back to the 1980s when large numbers of Haitian immigrants moved to this area. A friendly neighborhood with no shortage of restaurants and shopping, Mattapan Square in Southern Mattapan is the most active commercial district. Here you will find a selection of Caribbean cafes and restaurants, as well as locally-owned supermarkets and boutiques. Hop on the Mattapan Trolley in Mattapan Square and head over to Ashmont station, where you can catch a train to Downtown Boston. Situated on a quiet residential street near the heart of Mattapan, this huge triple-decker provides its tenants a cozy spot to call home. Less than a block from Blue Hill Avenue, one of the busier commercial thoroughfares in this neighborhood, a short walk will get you to nearby restaurants and convenience stores. This apartment includes a large flat-screen TV in the living area, WiFi, and free access to a washer and dryer located in the building. Are you new to the area and in need of furniture?

How rent is calculated
Per day
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. 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. We call this a Daily contract type.
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
