Beautifully renovated 2-bedroom, 1-bath condo on the third floor of a classic Boston brownstone at 390 Riverway APT 16, directly across from the Emerald Necklace and steps from the Longwood Medical Area. Quiet, bright, and ideal for a visiting scholar, clinician, or research fellow who wants to walk to work: Harvard Medical School, the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, Brigham and Women's, Beth Israel Deaconess, Boston Children's, and Dana-Farber are all minutes away on foot, with Simmons, Emmanuel, MassArt, MCPHS, and Wentworth close behind. Northeastern is a short walk, and BU is a few minutes up the Green Line or Buses #66, 47, and 65. The unit is thoughtfully renovated: granite countertops, cherry shaker cabinetry, stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher and induction cooktop, and a breakfast bar in the kitchen, plus a marble-tile bathroom. The living room has gleaming hardwood floors, exposed brick, high ceilings, and a sun-filled bay window. The primary bedroom opens to a private deck through a sliding glass door, and the second bedroom, with built-in shelving, makes an excellent study or home office. The building is calm and well kept, with professional neighbors, on-site laundry, and professional management. Olmsted Park and the Riverway paths are at the door for a morning run or an unwinding walk along the water. Practical details: $3,600 per month, unfurnished. Heat, hot water, water, and sewer are included, so there are fewer accounts to set up on arrival; the tenant pays electricity and internet. Move-in is first and last month only, $7,200 total, with no security deposit, no broker fee, no application fee, and no credit-check fee. Available now with a flexible start date, and lease terms are flexible around the academic calendar: academic-year or full-year terms both work, with extension through May 2028 possible. No smoking of any kind. No cats; dogs are considered case by case. Street parking is by City of Boston resident permit, though many residents here happily go car-free with the E and D Lines nearby. The owner is an academic (neuroscience PhD with a Harvard-affiliated research background) who understands visiting-scholar timelines, and the unit is professionally managed and responsively maintained.
