38 Harrison St #3, Somerville, MA 02143

Beautiful, sunlit top-floor apartment in a 3-flat building just a short walk from Harvard?s main campus in happening Somerville. With over 1,000 square feet, this unit is spacious, airy and bright. It has two bedrooms (one queen size and one full size), a luminous living room, a separate dining room with French doors, a large eat-in kitchen with all updated appliances (including a dishwasher and a brand new five-burner gas stove), and an in-unit washer and dryer. Well-kept, vintage hardwood floors throughout. The covered back deck off the kitchen is nestled among tall trees and overlooks a community garden and the wooded gardens of the American Academy of Arts and Science's campus. Whether sitting outside sipping coffee in the morning or eating dinner during a cool summer evening, you would never know that you are just steps from all the great restaurants and attractions that Cambridge and Somerville have to offer! Easy access to the T (~10-12 minute walk to Porter Square and ~15 minute walk to Harvard Square stations). Union Square and Inman are also just a short walk away as are Whole Foods, Market Basket, and Star Market. The apartment features generous closet space, including a large walk in pantry, coat closet, linen closet, and a closet in the dining room. Additional storage space is available in the basement. An off-street parking spot is included as an added benefit. For those who like to garden, the building has a raised bed garden with plenty of space for you to plant vegetables. Concord grapes and lavender return annually. I am looking for responsible tenants who do not smoke. This is my beloved home that I'm renting while away on a fellowship for the next 2-3 years. The other two units are owner-occupied. Available September 1 or a few days earlier. No dogs, but cat(s) may be negotiable with an additional pet fee. The apartment comes unfurnished, but the kitchen island and stools will remain. (Quick note: All pictures are current except for the dining room picture, as the dining room is currently being used as a 3rd bedroom.)
