About this property
City's Hippest Neighborhood.
This is truly a special place for your Boston visit The House If you are unfamiliar with Boston, a real home with a garden in the city proper is quite rare. You will find that living in this unique space allows you and your companions to truly relax and enjoy each other's company. It has all the charm you would want including eclectic art, comfortable bedrooms, a fully stocked open floor plan kitchen and a wonderful deck and garden.
The Bedrooms There are a total of 4 bedrooms, Three are on the second floor and share a bath. They have excellent queen beds with lovely cotton sheets and plenty of pillows. The Master bedroom with a king bed and bath is on the third floor. It's like being in a tree house because you have huge windows. Don't worry, there are blackout shades for a great sleeping experience. If you bring more folks, there is a single Ikea bed as well as two air mattresses if you need them.
The Kitchen and Garden The kitchen is stocked with everything you'll need. Coffee and tea and perhaps a bottle of something fun will be waiting for your arrival. The deck off the kitchen leads down to your exclusive patio with a grill. If you have kids, the garden is a great place to play while the adults are having drinks on the deck. The place is so quiet that you can hear crickets in the summer. It's sublime.
Why Stay in Jamaica Plain? Boston has several distinct neighborhoods - each with its own flavor. "JP" is considered the hippest neighborhood in the City, with great restaurants, pubs, bakeries, parks and a subway line that takes you to the major sights in 15 minutes. Don't forget Fenway Park! It's a quick Uber ride away.
The Food If you're a foodie, you're in the right place. You are only a 7 minute walk to the neighborhood center where you can pretty much get any cuisine that you want - Thai, Mexican, Cuban, Vietnamese, felafel, ramen, breakfast, pub burgers and old time meatloaf- you name it, JP's got it - even Scottish haggis. Third Cliff bakery is a new addition to the neighborhood. Get there early on the weekend and don't let the line intimidate you. It moves quickly. So many choices- go out for a bite to eat or grill dinner or bring back Thai takeout.
The Great Oudoors Often called "The Eden of America," JP has the largest percentage of greenspace per capita of any large city in the country. Take a walk from the house to Jamaica Pond or the Arnold Arboretum. Or go the other direction and run around the second oldest public golf course in the US at Franklin Park. It's also home to the Zoo.
Jamaica Plain, a neighborhood in Boston, is home to this vacation home. Boston Harbor and Encore Boston Harbor are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those wishing to experience the area's natural beauty can explore Boston Common and Revere Beach. Looking to enjoy an event or a game? See what's going on at Fenway Park or TD Garden.

The house was perfect for our family weekend in Boston. Nice neighborhood close to many restaurants. Beautiful outside area to grill or hangout. Spacious bedrooms and well stocked kitchen. Couldn’t have been better.
The property is an older, occupied home. The owner's personal effects can be found throughout, such as clothes under the beds and books and papers on the bookshelves in the bedrooms. We cooked a few meals, and it was nice to have kitchen basics, as well as ground coffee and tea bags, provided. It was conveniently located near a bus stop to Prudential Center and the Orange line on the T. Parking is on the street only, but we found spots near the house and mostly took public transportation.
Ideal for group of old friends to get together and do some Boston events where we all went to college in the early 1980s. Great, quiet neighborhood with easy walk to Orange Line.
Perfect place for our family vacation. Loved the location, all the amenities, easy check-in and checkout and friendly host. The only thing to mention for young families are that the stairs are very steep for infants. Host had baby gate and large playpen which helped.
Very clean and spacious with lovely decor. Pretty side yard. Close to everything. We rented both units which accommodated 13 family members. I would highly recommend this property.
This house was perfect for our family vacation to Boston. Plenty of restaurants within walking distance and the train was nearby for when we went downtown Boston. Nice, clean house with plenty of space.
We loved this beautiful house and it was a perfect place for our extended family to relax in between graduation events! Margaret was a pleasure to communicate with. Highly recommended!
Our stay at Margret's was excellent. The house is super cute, well stocked and nicely decorated. A very comfortable space to hang out in. Margret's is super accessible. Would definitely stay there again.
This is a great location outside of the city, close enough to enjoy all Boston has to offer but far enough to relax in this cute neighborhood. Food and parks are within walking distance. The weather was all sunshine but not too warm. Our host was so kind and communication was great.
Margaret was a wonderful host and communicated extremely promptly. Location was great, in close walking distance to public transportation and J.P. Downtown. We enjoyed making a cozy fire in the wood stove on a cool November evening. All in all a comfortable weekend with the family.
We loved the updates to this wonderful home. The front door deadbolt lock was tricky to unlock the door and for those who plan to dine at home, the kitchen could use more place settings for a family. Otherwise, the stay was relaxing and comfortable. We really enjoyed our time in the Boston area!
Stayed with our daughter and her family to attend our son’s wedding events in West Roxbury, down town, and Somerville. Perfect location. The house has great character and charm with high ceilings, very well maintained. The third floor master bedroom is in the tree tops!
Everything was great for our family trip. Margaret has great communication and even when I had questions she immediately answered. The location was good but the traffic was not. We used uber everywhere and I do not recommend renting a car because there’s a lot of one way streets and a little hard to navigate.
Very comfortable 4 bedroom home. We enjoyed the great kitchen for cooking, the large table to eat together. The master bathroom was very nicely updated. We enjoyed walking to the T and center street in Jamaica Plain. Parking our rental car on the street was also easy.
Our host provided plenty of towels, linens, shampoo, etc. She was very considerate.
Our group of 8 all slept comfortably, had everything we needed to prepare some meals, and used the living room, dining room, and deck to eat and play games. We parked our car on the first day and didn’t get back in it until we left. Everything was walkable or an easy Train ride to Boston—The Freedom Trail, Fenway Park, The Sam Adams Brewery, and all the other attractions downtown. It was a great place for a group to stay.
This Jamaica Plain neighborhood is a great location for getting around Boston. The train and many eateries and parks were within walking distance. The yard space was very helpful since we had small children. This old home had lots of character and the manager was very helpful. The stairs are quite steep, especially for the loft primary bedroom (which was spacious and beautiful) - so this space will be difficult for older people and small children. The home is obviously lived in and the manager was extremely helpful during our stay. The owner's recommendations for the area were also very helpful.
This beautiful home was perfect for our family vacation. Margaret was very helpful and kind. Check in was easy and the one time I had to reach out to she was quick to respond. The beds were so comfortable. The house had everything we needed. We enjoyed sitting out on the patio with our morning coffees. The T line was an easy walk that only took a few minutes. The neighborhood was quaint and very safe. There were 8 of us and we had more than enough room. We would absolutely stay here again.
What a divine and relaxing home! This is our favorite home we’ve ever rented. The patio and garden was also such a treat. Perfect location near the T and my favorite Fiore’s Bakery.
This home was a perfect place for our group of 6 adults to stay. Wonderful walkable neighborhood and easy access to the train system to get where we needed to go in Boston.
