furnished, one bedroom luxury condo overlooking Charles River Esplanade on historic Beacon Hill in Boston

Beautiful, fully-furnished, one bedroom/one bath, renovated condo overlooking the Hatch Shell and the Charles River. Located on second floor (excellent security) of a 3-unit, owner-occupied building (meaning it is well-maintained) built around 1890 on Otis Place, one of the nicest private ways on the 'flat of Beacon Hill' in historic Boston. Conveniently located within walking distance of downtown Boston, Massachusetts General Hospital and public transportation to all the nearby colleges and universities.

One mile to Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1-1/2 miles to Boston University, 2 miles to Harvard University. Arthur Fiedler Footbridge to the Esplanade and the Charles River is 2 blocks away. Only 3 blocks to Boston Public Garden (and short walk to the Boston Common, Downtown and Financial District) and the MBTA Green Line (to Boston University, Boston College, etc). About 6 blocks (or less depending upon how you walk) to Mass General Hospital (MGH) and the MBTA Red Line (subway to MIT, Cambridge College, Harvard, etc).

Original wide-wood floors and high ceilings, central air-conditioning, working gas fireplace, washer and dryer in the unit, gorgeous bathroom and gourmet kitchen with granite counters and high-end stainless steel appliances (refrigerator with automatic ice-maker, super-quiet dishwasher, gas stovetop, indoor electric barbecue grill, microwave oven).

Fully furnished with linens, towels, plates, utensils, glasses, pots, and pans. Pompanoosuc Mills furniture including a Queen-size bed (plus two twin-size sofa beds in the living room). VOIP phone with unlimited long-distance in the US and Canada. High definition digital cable with 43" Pioneer HDTV and complimentary Netflix video streaming.
