Description

One fully equipped bedroom on the main floor of the house, one and a half bathrooms, new comfortable bed and mattress, desk and office chair, closet, and extra storage space for cleaning supplies. Tenants have full access to the kitchen and dining room. It is an easy commute to Longwood Medical area, Boston University, Boston College, Harvard University, and Brookline. Electricity and Heat run around $65-$75 each per month per tenant. The house is smoke-free. My wife and I live in a separate apartment on the second floor. We are both educators and work at different independent schools in the area. We welcome inquiries from individuals of diverse backgrounds, including people of color, international academics, women, and individuals of all genders and sexual orientations. In my home, we prioritize friendliness and mutual respect. Creating a calm and comfortable atmosphere relies on everyone being polite and considerate toward one another, which I strive for. Please be ready to schedule a Zoom meeting to get to know one another. If you are a good fit, I'll send you the Rental Agreement, a non-binding document where you share your information. I will use this information to draft a lease. The second step is sending the Lease for both parties to sign. The payment to secure the rental is $1,100 (last month's rent). You will then pay the first month upon moving in.
