Situated near the western border of Roxbury, this Boston home is a short walk away from nearby supermarkets and restaurants along the major thoroughfare of Washington Street.

Cozy, sunlit bedrooms in this Roxbury apartment can be furnished or unfurnished and are large enough to accommodate queen-size beds and nightstands. All four bedrooms feature at least one window for much-needed natural light during the day. Three of the four bedrooms include closets for storage. The largest bedroom boasts bay windows, a decorative fireplace, and a dresser to supplement the lack of a closet. The single full-bathroom features a bathtub shower combination, an eco-friendly dual-flush toilet, a new single-sink vanity, and white tile floors and walls. A large eat-in kitchen with wainscoting is spacious enough to support a three-person dining table and chairs. The kitchen comes equipped with full-size stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher, and boasts black granite countertops that accentuate the white flat-panel cabinets. Additional property features include a fenced-in yard and a private rear porch, accessible through the kitchen. One of Boston’s nicest residential neighborhoods, Roxbury is a sprawling community with a diverse population of over 59,000 people. The availability of affordable housing makes Roxbury a popular spot amongst college students and single professionals that don’t mind the commute to Downtown. The sub-neighborhood of Nubian Square serves as the primary commercial district in Roxbury. Here you will find trendy cafes, local boutiques, and a variety of ethnic restaurants. Known as the heart of Black culture in Boston, Roxbury offers some of the best African and Caribbean cuisines in Boston. If you are looking for outdoor recreation, be sure to check out Franklin Park, a 485-acre green space that offers cross-country trails, a golf course, sports fields, and a zoo with a western lowland gorilla habitat.
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).
