Share our excellent historic home with like-minded graduate academics, researchers and professionals near convenient Porter and Davis Squares, the #1 favorite location of many active people.
Steps away from restaurants and public transportation. More artists per capita than almost any other U. S. city, anchored by venues like Somerville Theatre and annual events like the Honk! Festival.
CENTRALIZED LOCATION MAKES A DIFFERENCE: near Harvard, Tufts, MIT, Lesley, MGH, Suffolk, etc. & transportation: 12 min walk (0.65 miles) to Porter Square Red Line, 15 min walk (0.85 miles) to Davis Square Red Line, 0.9 miles to Gilman Square Green Line.
SUPER BIKE FRIENDLY! 0.4miles away from secluded, 3.2 mile paved bike trail known as the Somerville Community Path. This is a dandy way to commute to work in Boston, Cambridge, or Somerville. On the other end, it connects at Alewife with the 10-mile Minuteman Bikeway with wonderful rides through Cambridge, Arlington, Lexington, and Bedford.
