This sunny and spacious apartment has both the charm of its Victorian era with its wood floors and ceiling medallions and also the convenience of modern upgrades in insulation, electrical capacity, and modern appliances (e.g., new washer and dryer and modern boiler for gas heating).
The apartment is on the 2nd and 3rd floors. It technically has 4 bedrooms but is being advertised as 3 bedrooms plus an extra room that can be used as a guest bedroom or study. The owner lives on the first floor and can be easily reached for questions or should a problem arise.
Its location is spectacular, with amenities from both nature and the city. The backyard borders the Charles River preserve. One is steps away from a picturesque path that runs along the river with surrounding wildlife. It is also steps away from all the amenities of Watertown Square, with numerous restaurants, the farmer's market, free summer concerts, the beloved public library, a 24-hour pharmacy, and easy rapid public transit to downtown Boston (via the express bus) and Cambridge, as well as easy driving access to many locales.
There is off-street driveway parking for three cars.
Owner pays for water and sewage. Tenants are responsible for electric and gas utilities. There is no smoking on premises.
Lease runs to July 31, 2027.
