1 Bedroom Apartment in Jones Hill, Boston

This ground-floor apartment with private entrance has lovely hill-side, ocean and tree-line views. High on the peaceful and historic Jones Hill, less than a half mile from Savin Hill Station on the Red Line Subway, it combines the transportation convenience of the city with the giant leafy trees, rolling yards, horizon harbor view, and charming architecture of this old established residential area. Wood floors, white walls, large decks, long views--a relaxing place to stay, fully furnished and fully equipped. Just open your suitcase and you are home!
No need to risk bad air in shared elevators--instead, you'll have your very own private outdoor entrance. No risk from sharing indoor exercise rooms, instead you can set up your gear in your own private glassed-in porch, or plant flowers out in the back garden, or just walk over to enjoy the local tennis courts and beach, or explore the near-by bike paths that go from Castle Island to Savin Hill to Neponset and beyond.
The ample private deck area allows you to safely re-connect with family and friends outdoors, and the apartment itself has great cross-ventilation. The apartment receives both morning and afternoon sun, in fact watching the sun come up over the harbor from the porch or dining area is a special reward for early risers. This is a great space for some one who works from home because there is a dedicated work alcove with desk, and three other places you could set up for a little variety. But it is also excellent for a medical person, as we are only a ten minute bus ride from the BU Medical Center, and twelve minutes by subway to Mass General. If you are on a surgical rotation and only want to rent for a few months, let us know, that could be arranged.
From the spacious back porch and living room area, you have a panoramic view of a long hillside stretching all the way down to Boston Harbor in the distance, with 100-year-old trees, charming gardens, and varied historic architecture to liven it up (including a friendly family of three wild turkeys that occasionally roost up in the trees!).
The apartment has a galley kitchen with full size appliances attached to a pleasant glassed-in conservatory overlooking the garden, just right for a cup of coffee in the morning. A living/dining room with cherry-wood table and comfortable convertible sofa, a separate bedroom with a queen-size bed and large closet, and a bathroom including a shower, complete the apartment. All is furnished and the kitchen is equipped with the basics, so just bring a suitcase! The interior is 516 square feet approx, the exterior decks add an addition 235 square feet.
There is a full-service market near the subway with an excellent selection of fresh vegetables, meat and fish, pasta and desserts. There are also plenty of restaurants for good take-out food, and a pharmacy, all within easy walking distance.
This is a quiet neighborhood with a lot of professionals and medical workers, in particular because we have good transportation connections to BU Medical Center and several community health centers. We are also a fast ride on the reliable Red Line to MGH and Cambridge. Savin Hill Station on the reliable Red Line is less than half a mile away (10-12 minutes walk) so you won't need a car; but if you have one, on-street parking is plentiful, especially on our nearest cross-street, and no permit needed.
I am a health psychologist and music therapist, and speak Italian and French because of having grown up in Italy.
Your rental fee includes basic cable/wifi, heat and hot water and electricity; heat is baseboard gas heat, so the apartment temperature is very comfortable year round. The apartment is most comfortable for two persons, but it can sleep four for shorter visits. We regret that we cannot permit any animals of any kind, even small ones or exceptionally well-trained ones, nor is any smoking allowed inside or behind the building nor on the porches and decks, due to my family's health conditions. There is a pleasant smoking area with chairs and table in the front yard.

Summary: We had a great time in Boston! The apartment was cozy and in a convenient location. Parking was no problem at all on the street right in front of the house. We parked on check-in day and left the car there all week and just used Uber anytime we went out, driving in Boston is less then fun and traffic is about 10 minutes per mile where ever you go, lol. Ubers averaged about 15-30 to and from all the local areas for sightseeing and was worth it to not deal with driving in traffic. Our favorite restaurant was a Coastal Mexican place called Citrus & Salt which was one of the most Beautiful restaurant atmospheres I've ever seen. Don't miss the Freedom Trail, Tea Party Museum, Fenway Park etc...The Apartment: if you chose this place you already know it was about the cheapest place this close to downtown so you get what you pay for so don't complain. We chose to forgo a nicer, more expensive place in exchange to be able to stay longer and it was well worth it. It's a place to sleep...basics, not fancy or luxurious, however it met our needs and Jessica, the host, is a sweetheart. This is the perfect place to stay on a budget and not be snobby. The house is on a steep hill from all directions so walking is not for the faint of heart or if you're into fitness it's a perfect spot to get extra steps in!. We loved it and would go back anytime!
