Room in 3bd 1br Near Allston-Honan Library

This a room available is the first-floor unit of a free-standing duplex in Lower Allston adjacent to the Allston-Honan public library. Transportation via the 70 & 64 buses provides direct access to the MIT campus. The outgoing tenant commuted to... MIT via bike, one of the current tenants walks and/or takes the bus. There are two grocery stores within walking distance: Trader Joe's ~8 mins, and Star Market ~12 mins. We are an MIT staff member (26) and a Harvard post-doc (30), both in physics. Cost-free laundry is provided in the shared basement. One tenant has lived here for 5 years; the other joined last January.

Per the landlord's policy, active undergraduate students cannot rent the property, and pets are not allowed.
