71 Berkeley St, Somerville, MA 02143
What This Apartment Offers
Lovely, bright and spacious 4-bedroom second-floor apartment available on a quiet residential street in Somerville.
Harvard University is within walking…
distance, with convenient access to Tufts, MGH, Cambridge, and many universities, hospitals, and research institutions throughout the Greater Boston area.
The apartment is sunny and comfortable, with four bright, well-sized bedrooms and beautiful hardwood floors throughout. The living room is spacious, warm, and inviting, with plenty of natural light.
One of the nicest features of the apartment is the unusually large eat-in kitchen. A wide window spans the wall above the kitchen sink and counter, bringing in abundant natural light and making the entire kitchen feel especially bright and open. It is the kind of kitchen that may actually make you enjoy cooking — even if cooking is not usually your favorite thing.
The bathroom is clean and well maintained, and the apartment offers a peaceful and comfortable living environment.

Institutional or organizational master lease — universities, hospitals, research institutions, nonprofit organizations, government-supported programs, employers, or other qualified organizations seeking housing for staff, clients, visiting scholars, researchers, or other occupants are especially welcome.
2. Individual master lease — one qualified tenant may lease the entire 4-bedroom apartment under a single lease.
3. Group lease — a group of friends, graduate students, postdocs, researchers, or professionals may rent the entire apartment together.
4. Individual inquiries are also welcome — if you are interested in the apartment but do not yet have a complete group, please feel free to reach out and discuss possible arrangements.
5. Program-supported applicants are also welcome — applicants receiving rental assistance or housing support through nonprofit organizations, government programs, universities, hospitals, or other qualified programs are welcome.
If you are interested, or simply want to ask a few questions and learn more, feel free to send a message and arrange a viewing. The apartment is even better in person than in pictures.
