    What's special

    Double showerDeep porchAntique chandelierGalley kitchenKoi pond with waterfallExpansive landscaped yardGracious and elegant unit
    Gracious and elegant unit in owner-occupied Greek-Revival Victorian on beautiful Sumner Hill. Come home to one of the loveliest historic mansions in Jamaica Plain. Yearly lease -- not month to month. Rented unfurnished OR furnished as shown in the photos. Large handsome space consisting of living room with adjoining bedroom. Antique chandelier, ceiling fan. Ten foot ceilings, tall, broad windows looking out toward sunset beyond the Arboretum. Classy new tile bath with double shower. Stainless appliances, quarter sawn oak cabinets. Galley kitchen with stainless sink and appliances.refrigerator. No conventional gas range, but something healthier: state of the art air fryer plus microwave also bakes and roasts. 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. Southwest windows offer spectacular view of sunsets. A little more about our unusually expansive, landscaped yard: three garden levels, 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 minute walk to the Green Street 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, but really you do not need it: parking is free and unrestricted on our street. Plus gas & electric, which average 220 monthly. One year lease.
