About this property

Cozy House close to TUFTS, Harvard, MIT 3BR

Our renovated house is nestled on a safe tree-lined, in the PERFECT Medford location around a traditional Italian neighborhood. Private 1200 sq/ft 3Bed, memory foam mattress, fast streaming latest tech TV 65" with a 1,000Mb speed (no cable TV), kitchen stocked with everything you may need. Sleeps 7. Parking included. Short walk to Italian restaurants. Very close to Tufts, Harvard, Cambridge, Boston (14 min. by car). 8 minutes walking from Ball Square T Station (green line).



Private house w/ a remote lock door in the 1st floor unit. Blazing fast Fios fiber optics WiFi for all your streaming needs as well as a TLC 55” ROKU TV in every room and in the living room a 65" TV. No Cable TV for local channels. Top of the line Bali shades with full blackout. This house comes w/ 1 parking for no additional fee. We are a 2 min. walk to the bus station and 8 min. to the T station Ball Square. Electric cars are welcome and we have an EV charger in the premisses for a daily fee of only $10. We can install an extra twin mattress on the floor for the 8th guest.



Upon confirmation of your stay with us, you will receive an access code unique to your party. The home is smart locked, so no need to worry about sharing or losing keys! You will have 100% private access to the entire home during your stay. But if for any reason you need us, we are only a call or a message away!



I am busy with another full time job as a realtor, a foundation president and a happy short term rentalowner of other units. You will see me every so often in the house and I am always a call away if you ever need anything.



We are a 2 minutes walk to the Tufts Park, 10 minutes walking from some Tufts facilities, 2 minutes from the bus station, 8 minutes walking from Ball Square T Station (green line). Also, a 5 minutes walk from several Italian restaurants such as Bocelli's and also a Brazilian restaurant Oasis. Walking distance from my favorite coffee shops in town, Colette Bakery and Grounder Coffee.



Driving in Medford is easy as it is not congested as the other towns close by. You can find parking relatively easy on Willis Ave. Don't ever park on Ellis Ave as it is a resident only parking zone. We have a bus station close to the house (less than 2 minutes walking). 8 minutes walking from Ball Square T Station (green line).

We had a great time at Alberto’s place. He was an excellent host. He answered all our questions about the property before we checked in, and made the check in process very easy. The house was great and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay with Alberto again!

Great spot

We booked last minute and they were very accommodating. Our family used the T line each day to get places and it was so convenient and a short walk from the house. Window ac units worked great.

Perfect home near Tufts

This place had everything we needed! We were four people (three elderly) and had plenty of space to spread out and relax plus a super easy drive or walk to Tufts. Comfortable beds, lots of amenities (coffee, spices, shampoo, good towels) and great communication. Thanks for making this weekend possible!

Cute apartment in a convenient location

Our group of four adults had a great stay at Alberto's property. It's on a quiet residential street with parking space, but it's also an easy 10-minute walk to the nearest T station, so it was convenient for two modes of transportation. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had all the essentials. The apartment is in a converted older house that has loads of character, but there were a few old house quirks, like window AC units that left the windows ajar. Worth it for the three bedrooms, though!

Perfect for family of five

Place was clean, had enough space and good beds for two adults and three teenagers. House is older, but clean and had standalone AC units in each bedroom. We appreciated that, since we hit heatwave during our visit. Manager was very responsive and good communication when we tripped the breakers and needed to reset them. We drove to Boston and this was one of few rentals that had a parking spot. Overall, good stay!

Just What We Needed

The accomodations are not fancy but comfortable and very clean and extremely functional - lots of plugs and outlets for electronics, lots of hooks for towels etc., and all the basic IKEA kitchenware you would need. We got to the apartment a little over an hour early but went to see if we could get in and drop our stuff. We were able to get in. Highly recommend if you need to be in the Medford area and need a comfortable, no frills place to sleep.

Clean and easy

A great place to spread out. Good size rooms and fresh decor. Tremendous attention to detail. Hosts very accessible through text or email, happy to answer any question within minutes. Well run operation - it snowed the night we were there and sidewalks were being shoveled by the time we got up. Also, we left behind a few items and the host went out of their way on their own time to drop it off with our nearby family who we were visiting. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks!
