About this house rental

Make yourself at home in this delightful 2-bedroom retreat just outside Central Sq. Cambridge.

This spectacular open space set back and among trees is set well off the street - the action in Central Sq. feels distant. But it is only 2.5 blocks away! The house is steps to the Red Line at Central Square, MIT, Harvard, the Charles River, great dining & music, groceries, vintage finds, and more - here's Boston University's good guide to Central Sq. establishments: http://bit.ly/4kOHVBn.

8 / 10Excellent·Dec 2025
We had a great stay this past weekend! The home was very comfortable, clean, and welcoming, it truly felt like a home away from home. Aside from a couple of minor hiccups, everything went smoothly. I’m confident that if we had reached out to Amy during our stay, she would have been very attentive, as she seemed readily available and responsive.The only thing worth noting is that parking can be a bit of a hassle. We had a rental car and didn’t confirm private parking in advance (my mistake), but Amy did provide a street parking permit. Street parking was doable when spaces were actually available, just something future guests may want to plan for ahead of time.Overall, we had a good experience. Thank you, Amy, for a lovely stay!

A lovely, comfortable place and spotlessly clean. The location is great though noisy (Cambridge Sanitation rolls out the heavy metal around 0700). There was a plumbing problem, but the owner's communication was excellent.
