Charlestown Gem - Historic and Central Boston location, perfect for walking

Welcome to your home away from home in historic Charlestown/Boston, just one block from the Bunker Hill Monument! This walkable home base puts you steps from public transportation, the North End, Faneuil Hall and so much more. Enjoy the perfect blend of charm, location and accessibility - read on to discover more!

Please contact us for discounted rates.

THE SPACE:

This sunny, second-floor unit offers a warm and inviting atmosphere, with natural light pouring in through large windows and hardwood floors adding to its charm. The two bedrooms are thoughtfully situated on opposite sides of the unit, making it ideal for couples, families, or colleagues who value privacy during their stay.

Step outside to enjoy a rare city perk: a shared backyard space where you can sip your morning coffee, enjoy a glass of wine in the evening, or let your pup stretch its legs. Tucked away on a peaceful, tree-lined street, the home feels like a quiet escape—yet you’re just minutes from it all.

Stroll to the North End for world-class Italian food, explore the Freedom Trail right from your doorstep, or grab groceries and coffee at nearby Whole Foods and Starbucks. Public transportation is just a short walk away, offering quick access to downtown Boston, Cambridge, and Logan Airport. Whether you're here for business, sightseeing, or simply soaking up the city’s history, this Charlestown gem puts you right where you want to be.

We’re here to help make your stay as smooth and enjoyable as possible. Whether you’re looking for recommendations on day trips, need help securing restaurant reservations, or want tips on the best local spots to explore, we’re happy to assist. From hidden gems in the neighborhood to must-see attractions around Boston and beyond, don’t hesitate to reach out—we’re always just a message away!
