It would be hard to beat the location of this charming apartment, perched in Boston's well-heeled Beacon Hill. With its fascinating history, distinctive architecture, and neighbourly charms, you'll be staying in the city's most prestigious address. Wander the narrow cobblestone streets to discover quirky independent stores and antiques. When it's time to refuel, there's plenty of happening eateries on your doorstep. Or pick up essentials from Whole Foods just on the corner, and head down to the waterfront (fifteen minutes on foot). When it's finally time to rest up, let the iconic gaslit streetlamps of the district guide you home to this distinguished brick town property. The crossheads, pediments, and fire escape façade will catch your eye first, but the interiors of this chic studio apartment won't disappoint either. By day, natural daylight floods in through the tall windows and bounces off the polished wood flooring. By night, the mid-century-inspired furniture and artwork bring character and a homely feel to the space - it's the perfect bolthole to hunker down in.

About Cambridge
Spread across the north shore of the Charles River, Cambridge is a separate city from Boston with its own distinctive character. Depending on the time of year, you’ll see wild turkeys crossing the streets and rabbits ducking in and out of front lawns.
