I have a very large one bedroom apartment available for rent in an owner-occupied house in the Moreland Street Historical District of ROXBURY. I am looking for responsible, non-smoking, financially stable, positive individuals who would be an asset to the community. This beautiful and spacious one bedroom apartment is in a spectacularly grand Victorian house and has lots of character and detail. Special features include gorgeous hardwood floors throughout, beautiful bay window, high ceilings, and two exquisitely carved marble fireplaces (decorative only) and mantles. Small bonus room can double as an office or study. Updated bath and new kitchen appliances. Vibrant and sun-filled garden. Lots of trees and shade. Ample parking, no sticker required. Minutes to public transportation (2 minutes to bus, 20 minutes to orange line) and just blocks from the Silver Line in Dudley Square, the epicenter of public transportation. Asking $1400. First, last, and security deposit required. Utilities not included. Available the 1st or 15th. No fees. Absolutely NO SMOKING. Pets a possibility. A little about my community. . . I live in a great, residential neighborhood that is known for its architectural and historical significance. My community has several beautiful single and multi-family homes. There are beautiful playgrounds just minutes away, including a basketball court and a skateboard park. There are several community gardens, seasonal farmer?s markets, a community greenhouse, and three supermarkets nearby, including the newly renovated Tropical Foods. There is also a library, dry cleaners, and laundry all within walking distance. The Roxbury YMCA is a five minute walk. The Reggie Lewis Track & Athletic Center is also close by. A growing number of restaurants include Haley House Bakery Cafe, Dudley Dough, Suya Joint, Flames, Merengue, and Dudley Cafe. Amble UBER car service and walking distance to Hubway and Zipcar bike/car sharing. The Museum of Fine Arts, Northeastern University, Mass College of Art and Design, Simmons, Roxbury Community College, Wentworth Institute of Technology, the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, and the Longwood Medical Area, including Harvard Medical School, are all easily accessible. The central offices of Boston Public Schools, the Roxbury Innovation Center, Franklin Park (featuring zoo, golf course, etc) and Malcolm X Park (with tennis courts and outdoor pool) are all close by. Downtown Boston and Logan Airport are only a 10-15 minute ride away. Roxbury is rich with arts, history, and culture and has many beautiful neighborhoods, like Fort Hill, Mission Hill, John Eliot Square, Parker Hill, Highland Park, etc. Centrally located, Roxbury is the heart of the city! It is very convenient in terms of its proximity to downtown, the South End, Jamaica Plain and other areas in Boston. This particular section of Roxbury is close to the Dudley Square area, which is experiencing its own little renaissance. . . so if you want to be part of the rebirth and if you are a positive individual(s) as described above, feel free to contact me for an appointment. Thanks so much!
