Furnished Bedroom in Gorgeous Art Deco House Near Tufts

Description

Furnished bedroom available May 1st in a gorgeous art deco house on Brookings Street. Bedroom has a full-sized bed, desk, bookshelves, gorgeous hardwood floors, a spacious closet, and a huge window. The house is spacious with tons of light, art deco windows, a large reading room, a backyard patio and front yard gardens with another patio. Everything is fully furnished, so it feels like an Airbnb. This is a three-story house with three bedrooms and three bathrooms. It's very quiet, peaceful and friendly, ideal for academics, writers, or others who want their home be a respite of peace and quiet. I host a dean who rents a room as her pied-a-terre when in town, and have rented in the past to post-docs, professors, and other working professionals from around the world. In the house, we're often passionately (and quietly) neck deep in the work we're doing, so while we are friendly, we're not very social. :-) Utilities and biweekly housecleaning is $200/month.
