One extremely large basement apartment available in a shared house starting on May 1st! Newly updated house with neutral color scheme (think HGTV), subway tiles... , white quartz, backyard with combo brick/concrete patio, south-facing - the works! Live in a quality home without the luxury prices! We've put a lot of work into this place and are happy to share it.

There are currently 3 males and 1 female on the first and second floors of the house, all young professionals. They are all extremely clean and very friendly. You would be in the basement living in the in-law apartment, which has it's own bathroom but would have to venture to the 1st floor to use the kitchen. The common kitchen and living room on the first floor are generally furnished and available, so you would not need to contribute in terms of furniture unless you want to. There is also an unfurnished storage space connected to the apartment, as well as an office space, so there is tons of room. There is free washer and dryer for laundry in the shared, unfurnished basement area and plenty of additional storage. A good fit in this household would be college students or young working professionals - we have no preference with the gender as we are easy going and get along with just about anyone. Tenants must be drug-free.

Tenants should expect a lease contract until summer of 2027 (flexible end date, option to renew for a year at that time as well). Standard rent of $1,400 will be due at the beginning of each month. Signors will need to pay 1st month rent, last month rent and a refundable security deposit of $750 upon signing. Utilities costs will be shared and paid (not included in standard rent) among all tenants equally. Utilities are internet, heat (oil), water/sewage, and electricity. Note, we are open to a couple, but there would be an extra surcharge to rent of $200 as well as an additional head for the utilities split.

Location is great - just minutes walk away from a busy plaza and grocery stores, very close to a bus stop that will bring you into Boston, and a short drive away from Route 95 and Mass Pike. Location is also very close to Main Street and Moody Street, and would be a perfect area for any incoming Bentley / Brandeis students! Note, parking is on-street (no permit required) with ample space.

Pets will be allowed subject to pet agreement, but we unfortunately will only admit cats. We've had bad experience with prior dog owners, so we unfortunately can no longer take them. To have a pet, there will also be a one-time non-refundable pet fee of $100 (to account for additional wear and tear due to pets). In addition, there will be a pet rent of $75 per month.

Please email with any questions or concerns - it's a great household, and we'd love it if we could have a housemate that wants to be friends! Thank you! Read More
