About this house rental
Recently remodeled Victorian with all the Victorian charm and modern convenience in a prime location. Our home features traditional soapstone counters and sink, a luxury Japanese soaking tub with a huge rainfall showerhead, a coffee machine to get you going in the morning, and tons of charm. Perfect for 4-5 Adults +/- children
Our home is a two-bedroom in a beautiful 124-year-old Victorian home surrounded by a beautifully gardened yard. We’ve just completed extensive remodeling to a modern style while paying homage to and by preserving much of its Victorian elements and charm.
Our home easily accommodates 4-5 adults. We also have a high-end, firm queen-sized inflatable airbed for guests with children/teens, which can be deployed in one of the bedrooms if needed.
Inside, we have two bedrooms, each with a queen-sized bed with luxury mattresses. We also have an additional queen-size, stay-firm inflatable bed that can be used in one of the bedrooms as a third bed, or the Lovesac couch can be configured as a queen-size bed. Either or both of the rooms can be set up for you to be a work-space/office configuration complete with internet, large screen monitors, keyboard, and mouse (just plug your laptop in and you`re good to go).
The bathroom has a stunning hand-hammered copper Japanese soaking tub and what we believe is one of the largest rainfall showerheads made. ((Due to the high walls on the tub it may not be suitable for folks with limited mobility))
Our home is right across the street from one of the best cheese, fresh-baked bread, and luxury grocery stores in Boston, let alone Cambridge. Another grocery is just down the street, and Whole Foods is also very close. Restaurants and other shops abound.
The neighborhood is one of the region`s most sought-after, with some of the best-preserved Victorian homes anywhere. Just a few blocks away is the historic Longfellow House and Gardens, which we highly recommend folks visit.
Getting around the Cambridge and Boston area is simple and couldn’t be easier. A T Stop (Boston`s mass transit system) is right across the street; via the trolley, you can reach Harvard Square Station in minutes. With the T, you can get to almost anywhere else in Boston and Cambridge in little to no time.
We encourage folks not to drive in Boston and to use the T and Uber instead. We even offer an Uber discount code that gives you a discount on your first Uber ride booked from your phone (q2bpq).
However, if you have a car, we almost always have one off-street parking space in the driveway available for you to use (a rare find in and around Cambridge/Boston). There`s also free on-street parking nearby (please ask for the location if you`d like to use it).
Our entire flat is available for guests. We provide towels, linens, dishes, soaps, and everything you need to live comfortably, even coffee! All you need is your things. You can fill the refrigerator with food and goodies from the cheese and luxury goods store across the street, the grocery store just up the street, or the convenience store just up the way. The Washer/Dryer are available for your use as well.
Guests have the entire suite to themselves.
Monthly rental offers housekeeping services; laundry services are also optionally available
Nestled near Harvard and its surroundings, the neighborhood is quiet, well-established, and beautiful, with a rich history and many famous residents, past and present.
Located in Cambridge`s Huron Village, the home is blocks from the historic Longfellow House, Harvard, MIT, and Radcliffe, and the area exudes Victorian charm.
Local stores and tree-lined streets are just minutes away, and the home offers easy access to everything Cambridge and Boston have to offer, no car required!
Close to Harvard, Lesley, Radcliffe, and MIT. The home is a 10-minute walk to Harvard Square and Harvard University. An electric trolly/bus stops right outside and whisks you to Harvard Square and the T (trains) that run throughout Cambridge and Boston in 3 minutes. From there, MIT is 3 or 4 more minutes by the T, and Boston Common is roughly 8 minutes.
The Huron Village neighborhood has great local shops and restaurants to explore with a classic New England feel right in the middle of everything. The Longfellow House on Brattle is just a few blocks away.

ABSOLUTELY NO PARTIES or similar gatherings. We`ve never had issues with families or friends traveling together, family dinner/birthday party or things like that, we are specifically addressing parties.
Everything needs to be inside by 10 pm at a respectable noise level. Sorry to be so blunt but we have had a number of epic issues with this lately. It jeopardized guest safety/experience and our ability to host. There are many wonderful clubs and environments nearby for such activities. The area we are in is an upscale housing area not suitable for parties and similar events. As such you may find yourself without a place to stay. If in doubt please ask before booking.
We do collect a $200 deposit which will not be returned if there are noise complaints or issues from the neighborhood, if our cleaner has to completely reconfigure our home, or re-establish all the TV wiring after your stay. We`ve never had to hold it back, but, it`s there to prevent large and loud college parties and the like.
Standard Check-in is 4 or After, however, we can almost always accommodate early bag drop-off and sometimes an earlier check-in as well!
We have very few rules except to enjoy yourself and be respectful of our home and neighbors. We`ve tried to set everything up so you have a 5-star experience all around all. So all you need is your clothes and to focus on having a good time in our home as though it`s your own.
The few small rules we have are:
* No smoking
* No pets
* * Our home is not suitable for loud parties (PLEASE Please be good neighbors! The outside decks and patios are wonderful places to hangout out but, please be conscious of noise, be quiet after 10 pm, and move inside by 11). We have neighbors who sleep with Windows open and Cambridge has very strict noise laws that kick in around 10pm.

10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2025
This property worked perfectly for my family of 5. It is an apartment within a larger home located in a quaint and quiet neighborhood. The descriptions about the rental are accurate in terms of of the layout and the accessibility to transportation. We appreciated being able to have access to and park our rental car on the property, while being close enough to use public transportation. Have the joint washer/dryer was very helpful for our family. My teenagers thought the shower was magical. The beds were comfy as can be. My 3rd son used the provided air mattress and slept in the living room. The kitchen is small, but has everything one needs to make a meal at home. The apartment's associated porch is small, but it is easy enough to step around back and enjoy the back patio.Communication and check in/out were a breeze.

Old time harm in a lovely neighborhood!
8 / 10Excellent·Nov 2024
This place was perfect for us while attending a class on Harvard's campus. We would definitely stay here again.
10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2024
We had a nice stay near Harvard Square. Steve was very responsive and helpful. The space is not large and people with mobility issues should know that the shower requires going up a couple of steps to get into the tub. It’s a very well equipped apartment but people should be comfortable using remote controls. Having a parking space was great!
