1 Bedroom in Home of Teaching Artist

Room for Rent in Warm, Artistic Home (North Cambridge) $1100

Available July 15 - September 1.

Looking for a housemate to share my warm and artistic first-floor condo in North Cambridge, close to Harvard and MIT. The home is an 8-minute walk to...
Alewife Station on the Red Line, a 1-minute walk to the bus stop, and right at the base of Route 2. Easy access to Harvard Square, MIT, and anywhere in Boston since the Red Line goes directly to Park Street.

About the Space
The rental includes:

A private, fully furnished bedroom (bed, dresser, desk, closets, side table, bookshelf)

Shared bathroom, kitchen, living space, and laundry

Use of the yard

On-street parking

All utilities included, including WiFi

About the Home Environment
I’m renting a room to someone who will enjoy a peaceful, friendly home. I am a full-time ceramics teacher at a local private school and a ceramic artist. I have two cats.

I keep a relatively kosher, pork- and shellfish-free kitchen. I also have an allium allergy so garlic and onion are fine but should be cooked in your own cookware.

I am LGBTQ friendly. Shabbat/Jewish friendly housemates are especially welcome. I observe Shabbat and holidays in a joyous, egalitarian, non-traditional way.

Who You Are
An adult student or working professional who is quiet, responsible, warm, and enjoys living in a respectful shared home. Non-smoking. Someone who will add to the joy and calm of the household.

Logistics

1-year lease.

Rent includes all utilities and WiFi
