202 Highland Ave #20, Somerville, MA 02143

Rent a quiet 4th floor one bedroom in a truly sweet building! You will love living in our quiet, bright, well-maintained, safe, friendly apartment building at 202 Highland Avenue in Somerville, just minutes from bustling Davis Square and less than a mile from convenient Porter Square. Unit 20 is a very nice top floor apartment with original hardwood floors; it's a very private one-bedroom, available June 1 for $2000. All apartments in this building have heat and hot water included, have a small kitchen, a roomy closet or two, a full bathroom, a nice bedroom and a sweet living room. Due to sloping ceilings in the bathroom, this unit's shower is a bit on the short side so if you are super tall, please bear that in mind. This unit has a lovely nook or alcove in the living room for plants, a study, or a dining area; and the bedroom is large enough as well to have a separate area for a desk or whatever. Forgive the photos - they don't really do it justice! Laundry room is in the building and we take credit cards, not pesky quarters! It happens to be right next door to your unit; how convenient! Pets of all shapes, breeds and sizes are welcome (if quiet!) and progressive values encouraged, especially during these dark (but hopefully brightening) times. This is a non-smoking building and smokers are not welcome, sorry, including 420. Only a 15 min. to walk to Davis, Non-Smoking building, not 420-friendly sorry, FRIENDLY and CLEAN. Building is freshly painted, in a nice safe location, incredibly pet-friendly, mature fellow tenants, nice community atmosphere in the building, strong commitment to recycling, three bike racks, this is the place for you! Fancy new washer/dryer in building. New electronic buzzer system entry technology that rings to your personal cell phone. Totally pet friendly and/or lgbtq friendly apartment. Heat and hot water included. Ample on-street parking. You'll need a Somerville permit. Nearby dog-park. Here are the apartment's few faults: no basement storage, no dishwasher or disposal, no yard or balcony, no off-street parking, and, sadly, no concierge or doorman (doorperson?). This is not a modern spiffy apartment building, it is a funky, comfortable home for you! While adorable, these are pretty small apartments, so ideal for a solo person and/or a truly deeply in love couple. A 15 minute walk to either Davis or Porter Square. Feel free to put pictures up and paint the walls any color you like! We want you to be happy and consider this your home.
