About I am the proud owner of a converted carriage house located in Brookline, MA, not more than 5 miles from Boston's financial and shopping districts, the Harvard Medical Area and many of the Boston/Cambridge area's finest schools and universities. My home is adjacent to the apartment, so I am assessable if there are any issues, and am available to provide information about the area.

We have had a wonderful experience living in this home and absolutely love the area. It's in a perfect location - within walking distance of bustling Coolidge Corner, with several supermarkets and loads of great restaurants, parks and cafes just a few hundred yards away. Plus it's an easy commute to Downtown or Cambridge. The number 66 bus to Cambridge stops at the end of the street, and the Green Line T is about a ten minute walk away. Carolyn the landlord has been incredibly welcoming and easy to deal with. I highly recommend this property! Excellent GD 8/3/2012 11:56:00 AM
