Property Description
This listing represents a currently available or upcoming similar unit in the area. I am a licensed real estate broker and specialize in placing tenants in high-quality apartments that match their needs, budget, and timeline including both on-market and off-market opportunities.
This spacious 5-bedroom, 2-bath apartment offers approximately 1,700 sq. ft. of living space on the 2nd floor, featuring a bright, open layout with excellent natural light throughout. Hardwood floors run across the unit, complemented by modern kitchens and bathrooms. The layout is ideal for shared living, with well-sized bedrooms and functional common areas.
The property is conveniently located within walking distance of Forest Hills (Orange Line), the Arnold Arboretum, local restaurants, shops, and multiple transit options, making it an excellent choice for commuters and groups.
If this specific unit is not the right fit, I can source and present comparable or better options based on your criteria.
