About this Home

Don’t miss this spectacular four-bedroom, one-bathroom shared apartment on a quiet, residential street in Boston’s small and conveniently located Polish Triangle neighborhood. Situated on the second floor of a triple-decker home, this roomy, 1186-square-foot unit is newly remodeled and features freshly painted walls, sturdy hardwood floors, large windows for lots of natural light, electric heating, and a washer and dryer. Spacious, sunlit bedrooms offer closets and enough space for full-size beds, nightstands, and personal workspaces. The eat-in kitchen comes fully loaded with all-new stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher and microwave, lots of cabinets, and a modern sink and faucet. All rooms can be furnished upon request and before moving in. Less than three miles south of Downtown Boston, Polish Triangle is a mostly quiet and friendly residential neighborhood that puts its residents near all the excitement and attractions this city offers. Some of Boston’s best museums and restaurants are short drives or train rides away from Polish Triangle. Straddling the southwestern portion of South Boston, Polish Triangle is technically a small district within the large encompassing neighborhood of Dorchester. One of the city’s oldest and most historic areas, this neighborhood was named for the Polish immigrants that settled here. You can still find a few authentic Polish bars and restaurants playing polka music and serving up traditional delicacies like pierogies and potato pancakes. Offering affordable housing prices and proximity to the nearby University of Massachusetts Boston, Polish Triangle is home to a diverse demographic consisting of college students, families, and professionals. Spend an afternoon along the shores of Carson Beach and do some swimming or get some exercise at the nearby Joe Moakley Park. A perfect home for commuters, this lovely triple-decker is located less than a mile from the onramp to the Southeast Expressway. A nine-minute walk will get you to Andrew station for the MBTA Red Line train into Downtown. This smoke-free apartment includes WiFi and a flat-screen TV. Additional features include a decorative fireplace in the living area and a large back porch, perfect for barbecues and social gatherings.

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).
