About this property

Charming Condo, Quiet Neighborhood, Easy Access To Bos & Cambridge Via T Or Car

Clarendon Rd. in Belmont is a wonderful space for travelers interested in a 1 to 3 month-long rental. During June, July, August and the first week in September of 2023, you would have the entire place to yourself.

It is a 6-room space on the first floor of a 2-family house built in the 1920's. The house is located near the Cambridge and Watertown lines in the Harvard Lawn area of Belmont, which is considered the most desirable 2-family neighborhood in town.

We are a 4-minute walk from the MBTA #73 bus line. The bus ride takes 10 minutes to get to Harvard Square in Cambridge, and then it’s a 15 minute subway ride into Boston. Or you can park up to two cars in the driveway and drive into Cambridge and downtown Boston within 10-15 minutes.

The space is tastefully furnished and decorated with lots of wood furniture and African art. It has hardwood floors, a beamed living room ceiling, separate dining room, an updated kitchen, a den with fireplace, back porch for sitting, and a fitness room.

The house is on a quiet, tree-lined street with many friendly neighbors. It’s 2-3 blocks from two local parks, one which has newly-renovated tennis courts. It’s a 10 minute walk from the Fresh Pond Reservoir (great for walking around!) and a public golf course. There's also plenty of restaurants, supermarkets and shopping within a 5-10 minute walk.

Provided are two bedrooms. The master BR has a king size bed, large wardrobe, two side tables, a chair, a 50-inch smart TV with cable and a closet. The second BR has two single beds, bureau, desk, side table, lounge chair and walk-in closet.

The bathroom has a tub/shower, sink and a bidet-toilet.

The kitchen has a table which seats three, large refrigerator, gas stove, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, blender, and coffee maker. It is equipped with everything you will need for cooking!

The living room has seating for five with a 3-seat couch and two chairs, a and a 55-inch smart TV with cable, stereo cabinet, and Carrom table game.

The dining room is filled with antique furniture -- a table which sits four, a wine cabinet and a large side table.

The den has a fireplace, 2-seat couch, and a large desk.

The back porch has a table with seating for four, two additional chairs, and a barbecue. It overlooks a fenced yard with pretty shrubs.

In the basement is a fitness room with a StairMaster, stationary bike, multi-weight station, free weights, bench, arm curling station and a 36-inch smart TV with cable.

There is also a washer and dryer in the basement.

You will find my home attractive, clean, functional, and well-kept up. I hope to have you stay here!

Great Condo with a great location to get into Boston
Just as advertised! Mont is a great host who communicated clearly before my arrival regarding arrival coordination. Clean condo with everything I needed. A true quiet neighborhood with great access for running and biking around Fresh Pond. Would definitely stay again if traveling on business or with family.

The home was just as described...very room clean and the host is friendly.
The home is well maintained with adequate space and easy access. The parking was simple. The bedroom was comfortable and very quiet. The bathroom was clean with a great shower. Mont was friendly and accommodating--also very kind to my daughter and our pet. I would highly recommend staying here while in Boston. It is convenient and safe and comfortable. One comment when you drive there....be sure you put BELMONT, MA into the GPS and NOT Boston< MA as there is a Clarendon Street in downtown Boston and you might go to the wrong place like I did. This was NOT the owner's fault but rather mine.
