Large 175 Sq Ft Room – Davis Sq – Red & Green Line – $1,250

Hi everyone!

I work as a researcher at MIT, and I'm looking for someone to take over my room in a spacious 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath apartment.

Located near the Davis Square area of Somerville,
walking distance of both the Red Line and Green Line T...
stations.

I've lived here for about 5–6 years and have really enjoyed living here, but my plans have changed last minute so I will be moving to another area. Since I've already renewed my lease, I'm looking for someone suitable to take over my room for the coming year from 9/1/2026 - 8/31/2027, lease renews yearly.

📅 Lease: 9/1/2026 – 8/31/2027 (renewable annually)
Available as early as September 1, with a flexible move-in date through October 15. I'm happy to work with your schedule.

💰 Rent: $1,250/month + utilities
Electricity, gas, and internet are split 4 ways.

📄 Individual lease directly with the landlord.
Each roommate has their own lease rather than everyone being tied together on one joint lease, so you aren't responsible for finding a replacement if another roommate moves out.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐑𝐎𝐎𝐌

Large 175 sq. ft. bedroom (12.5' × 14')

The room has hardwood floors, two windows, and a large 2' × 9' closet with plenty of storage space.

The bedroom can come **FURNISHED or UNFURNISHED**, depending on your preference.

If you'd like it furnished, I'm happy to leave the queen bed/frame, desk, chair, shelving, dresser/clothing storage, and mattress **at no additional cost**.

3 friendly young professional male housemates in their late 20s–30s:
- a front-end developer/artist working in fintech,
- someone working at MGH,
- a postdoctoral researcher at Tufts Medical School.

It's a friendly and courteous household. Everyone has their own schedules and space, but the overall atmosphere is relaxed and social.

𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐋𝐎𝐑𝐃 / 𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐒𝐄

The landlord is local, friendly, very responsive, and easy to communicate with. I've had a great experience renting from him.

For serious inquiries, I'll put you directly in touch with the landlord, who handles tenant approval and the individual lease.

If you're interested, please message me with a little information about yourself and your preferred move-in date. I'm happy to answer questions, send additional photos, or arrange a time to see the room and apartment!
