    What's special

    All utilities included in rent price! Set atop a hill in Boston's historic Tommy's Rock, this meticulously maintained Greek Revival dates to the mid-1800s and pairs architectural pedigree with modern comfort. Ten-foot ceilings, generous room proportions, and oversized windows fill the five-bedroom, four-bath home with light. Original pumpkin pine floors, curved staircases, inlaid shutters, and marble fireplaces sit alongside recent updates, including all-new bathrooms and an electric car charger. Outside, a multi-tiered, professionally landscaped yard and several decks open onto sweeping Boston skyline views. A two-car driveway and easy access to transit, universities, and a thriving restaurant scene round out the package historic character, modern living, in one of the city's most sought-after up-and-coming neighborhoods. No pets, no smoking, and no undergraduate students. All utilities are included (Gas, Electricity, WiFi). First month, last month, and security deposit due at lease signing. No smoking, no pets, and no undergraduate students.
