    What's special

    Large open plan two bed one bath with den apartment steps to Inman, Central (great for redline access) and MIT. Also walking distance to Whole Foods and the Charles River. Very unique finished such as wide pine floors and exposed brick along with beam ceilings. Living room has large bowed bay windows. One off street parking spot. Unit has great layout with a room which would be a great study. There is a large shared patio and yard in the rear. Washer dryer on site, along with basement storage. Landlord would like to start out with a six month lease to allow them to get back on the academic cycle but may be flexible.
