    What's special

    Double showerDeep porchExtensive groundsKoi pond with waterfallDoric columnsPrivate bathTwo level yard
    Looking for ONE PERSON ONLY with no pets for a year long lease of this space. You would be living on one of the loveliest historic mansions in Boston, and have your own spacious, private living room / bedroom suite with closet-kitchen and private bath and double shower. You will have your own elegant, ballroom-sized space, with ten foot ceilings, mammoth windows looking out toward sunset beyond the Arboretum. You will also have your own classy new tile bath with double shower. Within your suite, you have a kitchenette, with granite counter and stainless sink, microwave, refrigerator, and induction cooktop. There is no range, though a compact convection oven is possible for baking. Stunning, gracious, serene. Owner occupied Victorian in historic post-Civil War neighborhood of Sumner Hill. Magnificent grounds with fruit trees and koi pond. Six minute walk to dozens of talk out restaurants, banks, CVS, grocery store, post office. Five minute walk to Green and Orange lines -- both! Two blocks from bike path to pedal to downtown Boston safely in minutes. A deep porch, framed by pairs of doric columns, wraps around most of the house; the west-side porch is a stupendous spot from which to enjoy the sunsets. Our home also has extensive grounds, with a two level yard, tiered by a serpentine, flat-stone wall; a dozen fruit bearing trees and shrubs (quince, blueberry, black berry, goose berry); three varieties of grapes growing on a tall pergola; a koi pond with waterfall and colorful comets and koi darting up to the surface. All this is only a few minutes from downtown Boston by T or bike along bike path, both only two blocks from us. We are located one block from the 39 Bus to the medical area (about a ten minute ride) and about a six minue walk to the Green Steet subway stop on the Orange Line. We are also a ten minute walk to the Arboretum and Jamaica Pond, and a couple of minutes to banks, a pharmacy, post office, copy center, Whole Foods, Happy Market, great restaurants for take-out, and other shopping. Off street parking may be negotiable. However parking is free and unrestricted in front of the house. Plus gas & electric, which average 220 monthly. One year lease.
