Stunning 2-Bedroom Apartment in the Best Location in Somerville!
This incredible 2-bedroom, 1-bath apartment at 72 Powder House Blvd, Apt 2 offers the best of Somerville living! With 1,400 sq. ft. of beautifully lit living space, spacious rooms, and an unbeatable location, this home is a rare gem. Available for a 13-month lease from August 1, 2025 August 31, 2026 for $3,450/month, with only first month's rent and security deposit required NO last month's rent and NO broker fee! Would also consider Mid-July start date as well.
Spacious & Bright--Large rooms that easily accommodate a queen bed, nightstand, and dresser. The master bedroom has TWO walk-in closets, one large enough to be a nursery or study nook!
Gorgeous Living Space-- A huge living room with a fireplace and a separate den perfect for an office or cozy lounge area. The formal dining room features charming built-in cabinetry.
Incredible Natural Light--The apartment is bathed in sunlight throughout the day, making it perfect for houseplants and a warm, inviting atmosphere.
Updated Kitchen--Stainless steel appliances and plenty of space to cook and entertain.
Private Outdoor Space--The beautiful second-floor balcony has new turf and lighting, creating a perfect space to relax. We'll even leave behind our planters for growing vegetables or flowers!
Quiet & Well-Insulated--You'll rarely hear your neighbors thanks to solid walls and ceilings. We have have lived here for four years and have loved the peaceful environment.
Tons of Storage--A large basement with ample storage space and a brand-new coin-operated washer & dryer for easy laundry access.
Easy Parking--While it's street parking, there is always parking directly in front of the house due to the lack of residential homes on that side of the street.
The Best Location in Somerville
You truly can't beat this spot. Tufts University and its beautiful green space (including tennis courts) are right across the street, yet you're just an 8-minute walk to the heart of Davis Square. Enjoy the best restaurants, coffee shops, and nightlife in Somerville, while still having the peace and quiet of a residential area. Plus, easy access to both the Red and Green Line trains makes commuting a breeze.
A Huge Savings No Broker Fee!
We are the current tenants and have lived here for 4 years and have loved it but unfortunately have to leave for work related reasons. Our landlord has agreed to allow us to end our lease early if we can arrange a 13 month lease, as she prefers all leases to end on the September cycle. Because this lease is being signed directly with the landlord, there's NO broker fee saving you $3,450 upfront (or about $287 per month over the lease term). We would also consider a mid-July start date if needed.
We're also happy to leave our window AC units at a discounted price if desired!
This apartment truly has it all-- space, natural light, charm, location, and savings. If you're looking for a beautiful, well-maintained home in the absolute best part of Somerville, this is it!
