About this house rental
If you are looking for quaint, historical Boston, our three-bedroom apartment is a gem. Located in an historic 1860s townhouse in the heart of Boston, it has three bedrooms with two queen beds, one double bed, one twin, and 1.5 bathrooms.
Bay Village is the smallest and one of the oldest neighborhoods in the city. It defines "location, location, location". Our neighborhood is just south of the Boston Public Garden, and adjacent to Back Bay, South End, Chinatown, and the Theater District. All of historical Boston is nearby by foot or public transportation and all amenities you could hope for are nearby. Our street has been described by the Boston Herald as "... out of a Sherlock Holmes story." Just walk into our quiet, residential neighborhood and you'll immediate know why we locals say, "its always nicer in Bay Village."
The apartment has many historic features like exposed wood beam ceilings, original fireplaces, open layout, and original plank flooring in the living room. and other unique details.
Being an old house, it was built before standardized building requirements. The stairs are very steep into the building - about 1-2 inches steeper than many are used to climbing. The stairs down to the lower levels are very narrow and the staircase to the lowest level has low head clearance.
Bring very comfortable walking shoes! Boston is a premier walking city! Where Bostonians can't walk, we will likely take the T (our Metro system), buses, or a ride share.
Parking is available at several parking garages, several within about a 5 minute walk

Everything was wonderful. All of the check in instructions were clear and easy to follow. The location was perfect; it was within walking distance of downtown, great eating, public transportation, etc. The townhouse was beautiful, clean, safe, and more than enough room for a family of 5. The hosts were very responsive and welcoming. Great place to stay!!

Susan and Paul are amazing host!!!!! The property was amazing, location is close to all you could possible want to do. If you going to Boston to enjoy the history then you will love this home. It comes with it own history both Susan and Paul are very knowlegable about the house history. We enjoy the scrape book they gave us to look at. The kitchen is fully equipped and then some. Spacious rooms and bedrooms. Most of all it is not a house it is a home. Looking forward to our return trip. Thank you so much Susan and Paul for making our trip fantastic. If you are looking for a place in Boston stop looking you just found it.
