Great location, comfortable, kitchen needs a makeover
Great spot in Chestnut Hill; we could walk or take the T to pretty much anywhere we needed to go. The layout worked well for our family of 4 (teen girl, pre-teen boy) as each person had their own space. The apartment is typical of an older duplex in this area (I used to live in Boston for a couple years) and is fully functional and comfortable. It has not been significantly updated (fluorescent lights and very old/worn out cabinets in kitchen etc.), so if that sort of thing bothers you, this place isn’t for you. Very simple check-in and check out process!

Overall it was a fine place to stay with the family for a few days. The only thing that was unexpected was the laundry was in the basement in a shared space with the upstairs apartment.

Good location with charm
Stayed here for a short college visit to Boston. Good central location near Green Line with parking. Apartment was comfortable, clean, and well-maintained. 4 star rating for location was due to jackhammering at 7am from adjacent construction - obviously not the owner's fault but could be an issue for upcoming guests.

Great stay close to Boston
I stayed here with my husband, our 2 kids and their grandparents and we really enjoyed the stay here. The house was perfect for us, there was a playground close by for the kids, it was a short walk to the T station to get into the city and there were lots of great restaurants nearby. We found everything we needed in the apartment, the host was very quick with communication and the oranges for fresh pressed orange juice was a great touch! Loved it!

Fantastic place and location.
Michael was very responsive to all of my inquiries and he made sure the place was clean when we arrived. The property was is good condition and very spacious. It is in an excellent location that is near the a T stop, a movie theater, restaurants, and is not on a busy street. My friends and I all had a good time. The beds were also very comfortable. I would recommend this place to anyone staying in the Newton/Boston area.

Sweet local home
This house is eclectic in decor and layout, and super comfortable. The beds were really nice and there was lots of extra bedding if needed. Some things are a bit rundown in appearance, such as the patio and driveway, and the water pressure in the shower was either perfect (or absent if someone else in the apt was using water), but overall the inside space was lovely and we enjoyed our stay.

Clean good neighborhood. Great communication
Very clean place in good neighborhood. Good value. Great communication by property manager. Apartment was well equipped with essentials like towels, kitchen products, and good space. Door knob was a bit tricky to turn. Available parking on driveway. Exterior could use some love (I.e. paint job, garage exterior repair, and landscaping).

Born in the Soviet Union, I came to the US as a kid. An artist by trade, I wear many hats. I am a VFX Animator for scientific and educational films, the creative consultant and Art Director for a cannabis start-up, and a VRBO Host. Traveling the world, I found my passion for hosting.

Why they chose this property

This is an old house with a lot of spirit, while it is hidden away in the quieter neighborhood it's conveniently located to everything in Boston.

What makes this property unique

It is located near the legendary Country Club golf course (the oldest country club in the USA) and within walking distance of the Boston College campus. At the border of Brookline/Chestnut Hill. This is a perfect location near Boston, where you can stay in a quiet, green residential area. D-train (7 minutes walking from the house) is convenient for a fast and easy commute to downtown Boston, including the Longwood medical area. Rt 9 (Boylston St) makes it very easy to drive into Boston. Walking distance to upscale malls, grocery stores, luxury cinema, parks, and Neta- Boston's first recreational cannabis dispensary.
