Modern 3BR in Historic Brighton Free Parking + Walk to Boston Landing

Experience authentic Boston living in this renovated 3-bedroom apartment, perfectly situated in a quiet Brighton neighborhood. Just steps from Boston Landing, you are minutes away from the energy of Fenway Park and Downtown without the noise. Featuring high-end Italian finishes, gel memory foam mattresses, and the rare bonus of free on-site parking, this is the perfect home base for families and groups.

The Space Located in a classic New England "Triple Decker," this home offers the best of both worlds: historic character and modern luxury. While these buildings define Boston’s architectural history with their high ceilings and bright bay windows, we have fully modernized the interior for your comfort.

Sleep: Queen-size beds with cooling gel memory foam mattresses.

Eat: Fully equipped kitchen with top-tier appliances.

Relax: Renovated bathroom featuring imported Italian tile.

Comfort: Spacious layout with plenty of natural light.

Guest Access Contactless entry makes your arrival seamless. We use smart locks that generate a unique code for your specific stay. This code will be sent to you the day before arrival and grants access to both the building’s main entrance and your apartment door.

The Neighborhood Brighton is a historic, safe, and vibrant community bordering Cambridge and Brookline. You get the authentic "local" feel while being just minutes from the city center.

Getting Around

Commuter Rail: The Boston Landing Station is a short walk away—get to Fenway (1 stop) or Back Bay/Downtown (2 stops) in under 15 minutes.

Bus: Multiple MBTA bus lines run throughout the immediate neighborhood.

Car: Easy access to the Mass Pike (I-90). We are approximately a 20-minute drive from Logan Airport.

Parking: Free on-site parking is available (please request at time of booking).

Other Things to Note This is a second/third-floor unit in a traditional walk-up building (no elevator). You will enter through a common foyer and ascend a staircase that is wide enough to easily navigate with luggage.

Option 2: The "Short & Punchy" Update
Best if you find that guests on mobile aren't reading the long text.

Perfect for our family of 4; two singles & 1 couple traveling to celebrate our graduate. Very comfortable & photos presented accurately. We enjoyed morning coffee on the small back porch looking eastward. Very easy & reliable communication with the Host, they checked in making sure we had everything we needed, much appreciated. Nice to walking towards the North with a coffee shop & sizable grocery store within 10 minute walk. Very pleasant to be there, we highly recommend it.

Boston Marathon Visit

We had a great stay in Boston this spring for the Boston Marathon.A friend of ours was running the marathon for the first time and my wife and two friends came down to support. Kevin & Leigha were great hosts and very repsonsive. Check in was a breeze and they were even kind enough to let us stay a little later on our last day as our flight home wasn't until later in the afternoon.Alston is a great little community with a bunch of excellent shops and restaurants close by. The Charles River and Harvard are within walking distance and worth checking out and access to transit into the city is less than 10 minutes away.Would definitely recommend their place for a small group looking for a place to stay just outside the city and hoping to catch a game at Fenway or see some of the campuses around town or the sites around Boston.

Best Experience Yet

I’m not a VRBO veteran by any means but I’m certainly not a rookie. This was easily my best experience. The communication was stellar. Every question I may have had was answered before I could ask it. The place was very clean and modern. Everything you need to cook an entire meal was included. Satellite television. Lots of extra soft cotton towels folded uniquely on each bed. White noise machines if you like them when you sleep. If I’m ever visiting Boston again, this will be my first choice when it comes to quarters.

Early May Visit

Overall the apartment was nice. There are 3 bedrooms and a living area with a great couch that could comfortably sleep 2 adults if needed. That area also had a door which is convenient if using as an additional sleeping area. The unit we stayed in was on the 3rd floor. This is noteworthy if traveling with anyone who is elderly or has difficulty with stairs as the stairs are quite narrow, steep and curve around almost like a spiral staircase. Navigating with large suitcases can be tricky but is doable. The apartment is located immediately off of a busy interstate so road noise is present but this is to be expected in many places in a city this size. The kitchen does contain most of what you would need for cooking and eating, however, if you are cooking for more than 2-3 people the options are more limited as there is only 1 pan. There were lots of pots though. There were also no dish towels but an adequate paper towel supply. This is an older home that has been renovated nicely but the floors appear to be original hardwood and do squeak substantially throughout the entire apartment. There will be no sneaking around in this unit. The check in process was very easy and the location is convenient to grocery stores, T access and places to eat and easily accessible for Uber drivers.

Loved it - would stay there again

The 3rd floor apartment was perfect for our stay. Easy to get in, on site parking was great, walking up the spiral staircase was an adventure but totally fine. We would stay there again for sure. Very nicely renovated house/apartment and easy to access Harvard, BU, and BC. The neighborhood was safe and quiet.

Okay

This was not quite what we had imagined. It is situated in a residential neighborhood next to a busy busy road, there was constant noise. The house was fine but let down by a few small things. We couldn't put our clothes away in the wardrobe or drawers because they had random crumbs, cables etc and didn't feel clean. There were no wine glasses, only plastic which is a pet hate. In fairness, we were last minute booking and there wasn't much choice of this type of accommodation. Although we did use public transport to access Boston one day, it really wasn't very convenient, trains don't run that frequently so we ended up driving in for flexibility and so we could travel to multiple places easily. I would not recommend this to friends visiting Boston

Nice Base for Family Boston Visit

Good base for exploring Boston with the family. Very clean property with three bedrooms that allowed kids to have their own room. Dedicated off street parking was a plus. Some good eateries nearby including Pavement coffee, Ariana’s Afghani restaurant, & Blackbird donuts. The commuter T rail line is across the main highway near the flat but to get to the T line that goes into the city, it’s a good 15-20 minute walk. That said, we like to walk & didn’t mind the schlep to the Green line into the city. Coin laundry in the basement of the building was a plus—did three loads in the few days we were there after spending several days prior traveling through VT & NH. Make sure you bring lots of quarters if you plan on doing laundry. Overall a great spot for exploring Boston with the family.

Great unit

Unit was immaculate when we arrived, kitchen and bath beautiful. Plenty of space for our family of 4. Location was a bit of a disappointment, was further outside of Boston than anticipated, and getting to the commuter rail was not an easy walk. Used our car and Uber more than the T. Not being from the area, specific instructions on how to get to the closest stop would have been helpful. Kevin was a great host, very communicative and responsive when the air stopped working (quickly got it fixed). Overall, the place was beautiful and I would absolutely rent from them again.
