Furnished 1-Bedroom for Rent in at 2-bed, 1-bath spacious home

Room available in spacious 2BR near Cambridge/Somerville. I’m looking for one roommate to share a bright, comfy 2-bedroom/1-bath apartment in East Arlington, right on the border of Cambridge and Somerville. Available as soon as August 1, 2026 (start... date somewhat flexible). Ideally 3+ months, but I’m open to discussing shorter/longer stays. I’m happy to answer questions or share photos/videos of the space. If this sounds like a good fit, please reach out. Text is easiest.

I’m in my early 30s, a Harvard staff member with a social work background. I work a hybrid schedule and am out a fair amount, so you’ll often have the place to yourself.

Room: Fully furnished: bed, desk, shelving, sheets, towels. Rent: $1,550/month, including utilities. First floor of a classic two-family house, in-unit laundry, front and back porches, backyard, and off-street parking. Spacious living room and dining room, large fully equipped kitchen. Quiet residential street close to restaurants, cafés, and the Minuteman Rail Trail/Mystic Lakes. Near multiple bus lines, including the 77 to Harvard Square. Quick bike ride to Davis and Porter Squares in Somerville.

Approximate Utility Cost: Included in rent
