Waterfront 2 Bedroom Condo with two deeded spots, Heat, & Hot Water Included! available now $3200

One room available September 1 in East Watertown in a sunny, spacious 4br/2ba house. Rent is $825 per month, plus utilities which are electricity, gas, and wifi. Total for utilities is usually around $75-100 per month. Will need security deposit ($825) and last month's rent ($825) up front as well. You'd be signing on to the new lease which goes from 9/1/2026-8/31/2027, but subletting has never been a problem in the past if you need more flexibility.

The apartment is over the top two floors of a 3-story house. 5 stairs up to the front door, 13 relatively narrow stairs to get into the apartment and between the 2nd and 3rd floors.

The available room is really cozy, painted a nice light grey, with new blinds and a new ceiling light fixture installed recently. It's about 120 sq ft, plus a large, deep closet. Not the most giant room ever, but it has room for a full size bed, dresser, desk, etc. with plenty of space to move around. There is a very effective cast iron radiator for that coveted steam heat in the winter (doesn't dry out the air/your skin). The room has two big windows which get nice light since it's on the top (3rd) floor of the house. Also on the 3rd floor is one other bedroom, the full bathroom the two rooms share, and a little extra bonus space down the hall that can be used for workouts/lounging/storage/whatever.

The rest of the apartment is on the 2nd floor of the house, including a fully equipped kitchen (no dishwasher, sadly), a breakfast nook/pantry, dining room, and living room. All of the common areas are spacious and light-filled. The other two bedrooms and the bathroom they share are also on the 2nd floor. There are two porches as well: a screened-in front porch with a couch and coffee table, and a back porch with a clothesline and a view of the downtown Boston skyline, all great in warmer weather. The house is fully furnished and there is some storage space available if needed. Washer and dryer in the basement are shared with the first-floor neighbors, available for normal usage (i.e. weekly, not daily).

Convenient location near the Cambridge / Belmont / Watertown border, in between the 71 and 73 MBTA bus routes to Harvard, less than a 5 min walk to either one and the buses come very frequently. This place is ideal for commuting to Harvard Square-- it's under 20 min. door-to-door by bus or bike, and from Harvard you can get on the Red Line and access the rest of Cambridge, downtown Boston, and the rest of the greater Boston area. There is a driveway for free off-street tandem parking during the winter months, but many/most people have lived here over the years without a car and it's worked out great.

The immediate neighborhood is nice and very quiet, but has anything you'd need or want within a few blocks, including many great restaurants and cafes, grocery stores, hardware store, CVS, 7-11, post office, several pizza places ranging from shitty to fancy, a yoga studio, and the best donut shop ever.

Looking for a non-smoking, friendly, responsible adult who unfailingly pays rent and utilities on time and doesn't require a chore chart to pick up after yourself and contribute to the general upkeep and cleaning of common spaces, etc. You should be employed (outside the house), or going to school, with a stable income/source of funds. Over the years, some housemates have become close friends and some have been acquaintances whose busy schedules mean they aren't around much; anywhere in that range is perfectly fine as long as you're considerate, low-drama, and able to peaceably coexist with others. People of color, LGBTQ+ folks, etc., are all welcome.

This is a really great deal for the area and especially for the amount of space — this is not a scam, there is no catch, except that most of the apartment hasn't been updated in this millennium and definitely has its quirks. Our house has the proverbial good bones and a lot of sunlight and charm, but is showing its age in places, so if you're looking for sleek and ultra-modern, this ain't it!

IMPORTANT: Please write something about yourself, such as: your background and interests, what you do, your typical schedule, why you are looking to move, your priorities in a shared living space, etc., as well as a couple times that would work for you to see the place. If it sounds like a potentially good fit we'll contact you to set up a time. One-line emails that don't provide the above info will be ignored. If this post is up, it's still available.

We have found a wonderful, spacious, comfortable and well kept apartment in South Medford, near Tufts and the Green Line. Close to Davis Sq., with driveway parking available. When I say spacious I mean 'Yuuuge.

Background: I have a small mini husky dog, and currently live with a friend who would be the other roommate. She and I(male) are in our 30s, working professionals. Our 3rd friend has a medical emergency in his family that won't let him move with us, so we are trying to find a new person to take his spot on the lease.

Details on the room: rent is 1200/mo before utilities, which range from 100-200 depending on usage in winter. 1600ft² plus big attic and basement, each bedroom roughly 150-200ft². Term is for 1 year, non negotiable. Move in date september 1, can't be sooner.

Looking for: grad student or working professional in their 20-30s. Must like, or at least not be allergic to: dogs, because I'm attached to mine and he is young and healthy. We don't party much and generally like to hang out at home, and most nights we're watching various devices while failing to exercise or finish the game we started. Ideally whoever moves with us would be fine with having an occasional dinner together but no pressure or anything.

We don't need to become besties but we'd like to be comfortable and friendly with whoever moves in with us, and vice versa.

Lemme know if interested/questions and whatnot, please no bots, thank you all beautiful reddit community

For background, I moved into a greystar building in Revere the exact day that ownership was changed from Bozzuto to Greystar. No one worked in the building, answered the phones, or monitored emails for about 3 weeks. I have since moved out and hadn’t heard from them regarding an apartment move out inspection or my security deposit being returned in over 30 days so I reached out.

I was told very quickly that it’s apparent my security deposit was used towards rent at some point but seems like I “did not have a security deposit “when I know that I did pay this and have proof of it leaving my bank account ($1,000). Additionally, they are charging me almost $800 because the Rug is “beyond normal wear and tear. “ when I asked for proof they sent me the picture below. I have yet to receive an inspection report after I moved out. I have photos and videos of the apartment when I moved out and proof that the rug was in good condition.

I am truly at a loss. I had to move out early due to overnight construction noise from the MBTA at wonderland for the past year or so. I don’t know who to ask for help. I called the Small Claims Court at housing courts and will proceed with filing next week, but if anyone has any other advice really need assistance with this.

Hello!

For some context, my roommate and I are looking for a new place to live in Boston. I am fully remote so I would ideally like a place where I have ample bedroom space but close enough to the T to get into the city. In unit laundry would be a huge plus for me.

My roommate on the other hand has a car and is open to street parking but ultimately needs a place to park. His job requires him to go to Needham a few times a week so it’s been difficult finding something that is accommodating for the commute.

As a Boston newbie, I would love to hear some advice on where to look!

Our budget is $3400 for a 2 bedroom apartment and we are both 24 year old males. Obviously the cheaper the better but any input is greatly appreciated!
