Loaded with new appliances, including a washer and dryer, this recently refurbished apartment features bay windows for lots of natural light, central heating and air conditioning, fresh coats of paint, high ceilings, large bedrooms that can be furnished or unfurnished, modern bathrooms, recessed lighting, refinished hardwood floors, and quartz countertops.

Ask about the availability of this Boston home as an entire apartment when you book a tour to see it in person. Constructed in 1890, this three-decker home is located directly across the street from a shaded urban green space that features a playground for kids. Approximately three miles southwest of Downtown Boston, Fort Hill is technically a sub-neighborhood and historic district within the overarching Roxbury area. An ideal home for both couples and singles wanting to live close to popular Boston attractions, such as Fenway Park and Olmstead Park, this Fort Hill apartment puts its tenants within a short drive of numerous entertainment options. Street parking is available along Dorr Street with a residential parking permit. A perfect home for active individuals that enjoy riding a bicycle, a six-minute bike ride will get you to a Stop & Shop supermarket in nearby Hyde Square. A six-minute walk will get you to a bus stop at John Eliot Square for several MBTA bus routes. For those that prefer to use Boston’s rapid transit system, an 11-minute walk will get you to Roxbury Crossing station for MBTA trains on the Orange Line. The front door of this lovely Fort Hill apartment opens to a huge eat-in kitchen with large windows that provide lots of natural light. The fully renovated kitchen comes equipped with new stainless steel appliances, including a Samsung French door refrigerator and dishwasher. The kitchen features beautiful quartz countertops, a convenient breakfast bar that seats four, and modern pendant lighting. Three of the four bedrooms are large enough to accommodate queen-size beds, one of which offers a private ensuite bathroom. The other two bedrooms can support full-size beds, one of which holds the washer and dryer. All four bedrooms boast multiple windows for much-needed natural light and warmth during the day. Recently renovated bathrooms feature new tiling and new vanities with quartz countertops.

Your safety and comfort are our top priorities! To ensure this, we ask all our new members to complete a background and credit check, as well as electronically sign a separate residency agreement. Just a heads up, you'll need to share your ID and Social Security Number (for those in the US) with us. We'll shoot over the agreement right after you book, and we kindly ask you to sign it quickly to guarantee your room. For your credit, we're looking for scores above 550-650, depending on your city and we'll need a clean criminal record too (this doesn't apply to DC). If you meet all the requirements, you will receive the agreement which you need to sign within 24 hours.

Frequently asked questions for this offer

What happens after I make a reservation?

Once you send a reservation request, the landlord is notified that you are interested in their offer. From that moment, they have 24 hours to approve or reject your reservation.
Landlords are mainly interested in the profile of their tenant. Do not forget to fill in all necessary information, add your profile picture, or even make a short video about yourself. Doing that will make you more attractive for the owner and your reservation will more likely get approved.

What is the standard furnishing of flats?

All the apartments on offer on HousingAnywhere must meet certain standards. We require fully furnished and equipped ones, dishes, cutlery and internet connection included.

What is a medium-term rent?

The duration of a medium-term rent is usually 1 to 12 months. Most of the landlords offer long-term rents or rents for just a few days, therefore getting a medium-term rent without HousingAnywhere is not that easy.

Can I go through the contract before I make a reservation of the housing?

You can take a look at the contract in advance and online with every offer. After you sign it, you will find it in the application My Housing.
While arranging a contract on HousingAnywhere, you do not have to worry that it could be disadvantageous for you. Our contracts are made so that we avoid all problems! All of them are the same, used by all the landlords on HousingAnywhere.

Can I see my chosen accommodation in person before I sign the lease agreement?

Your time is precious. That's why we've added a virtual tour option to our platform so you can see some of the rentals listed on HousingAnywhere from the comfort of your own home.
If a virtual tour isn't available for the accommodation you've chosen, you can contact the landlord and ask them if they're willing to give you a personal tour of the rental unit.
If you move in and find that the rented accommodation doesn't match the information on HousingAnywhere at the time the reservation request was sent to the landlord, you can withdraw from the lease agreement under certain circumstances explained in this article in our help center.
Also, under our "secure move-in" policy, we'll assist you with moving to an alternative accommodation if you report within a certain period of time that the rental unit doesn't match the ad and the landlord doesn't fix the problem immediately. You can read the details in our help center.

How can I pay?

On HousingAnywhere, you have a variety of payment methods to choose from. You can use your card, payment gateway or bank transfer. Just pick the one which suits you the most.

How can I cancel my reservation?

How you can cancel a reservation varies depending on what stage the reservation is in.
Is your reservation request still waiting for landlord approval? Then you can simply cancel it directly from your My Housing web app!
However, suppose the owner has already approved your reservation request, and you are no longer interested in it. In that case, you can still cancel the reservation before you sign the lease agreement. Just consider that you should do this only in essential cases. Because when the landlord accepts your reservation, their property is stopped being advertised, and they can lose the chance to rent their property to someone else.
Do you have an approved reservation and also a valid agreement? In order to cancel your reservation, contact HousingAnywhere customer support well in advance of your contract beginning (the specific time and amount of refund depends on the type of cancelation policy).
