Description
Rare Find in Boston’s Hippest NeighborhoodThis is truly a special place for your Boston visit You have the opportunity to stay in a wonderful 19th century house that has been completely renovated.The HouseIf you are unfamiliar with Boston, a real home with a garden in the city proper is quite rare. You will find that living in this unique space allows you and your companions to truly relax and enjoy each other’s company. It has all the charm you would want including eclectic art, comfortable bedrooms, a fully stocked open floor plan kitchen and a wonderful deck and garden.The BedroomsThere are a total of 4 bedrooms, Three are on the second floor and share a bath. They have excellent queen beds with lovely cotton sheets and plenty of pillows. The Master bedroom with a king bed and bath is on the third floor. It’s like being in a tree house because you have huge windows. Don’t worry, there are blackout shades for a great sleeping experience. If you bring more folks, there is a single Ikea bed as well as two air mattresses if you need them.The Kitchen and GardenThe kitchen is stocked with everything you’ll need. Coffee and tea and perhaps a bottle of something fun will be waiting for your arrival. The deck off the kitchen leads down to your exclusive patio with a grill. If you have kids, the garden is a great place to play while the adults are having drinks on the deck. The place is so quiet that you can hear crickets in the summer. It’s sublime.Why Stay in Jamaica Plain?Boston has several distinct neighborhoods – each with its own flavor. “JP” is considered the hippest neighborhood in the City, with great restaurants, pubs, bakeries, parks and a subway line that takes you to the major sights in 15 minutes. Don’t forget Fenway Park! It’s a quick Uber ride away.The FoodIf you’re a foodie, you’re in the right place. You are only a 7 minute walk to the neighborhood center where you can pretty much get any cuisine that you want – Thai, Mexican, Cuban, Vietnamese, felafel, ramen, breakfast, pub burgers and old time meatloaf- you name it, JP’s got it – even Scottish haggis. Third Cliff bakery is a new addition to the neighborhood. Get there early on the weekend and don’t let the line intimidate you. It moves quickly. So many choices- go out for a bite to eat or grill dinner or bring back Thai takeout.The Great OudoorsOften called “The Eden of America,” JP has the largest percentage of greenspace per capita of any large city in the country. Take a walk from the house to Jamaica Pond or the Arnold Arboretum. Or go the other direction and run around the second oldest public golf course in the US at Franklin Park. It’s also home to the Zoo.
