About this property

🎖The Ashmont Apartment - Close to Subway & Downtown Boston🎖

This stunning 2 bedroom/2 bath apartment is brand spanking new - along with all of the furnishings. It includes one queen & one full size ensuite bedrooms. The unit is extremely clean and very nicely decorated. Only a 5 minute walk to Ashmont station (red line), which will take you directly to downtown Boston, Harvard Square, South Boston, Kendall/MIT, U Mass. There are two great restaurants nearby - Via Cannuccia and Tavolo Ristorante, as well as a local coffee shop + a Dunkin just across the T station.

The Space

The historical property was built in 1894. It is located in Ashmont Hill, which is an area within Boston's Dorchester neighborhood that is known for their beautiful victorian homes, and its diverse and eclectic neighborhood.

The house is located only about a five minute walk from Ashmont T station, which is the first or last station on the red line. Extremely convenient.

The Ashmont Apartment is Unit 1 (First Floor) of our two family home to which we have converted the entire property into a unique Guest House and Outdoor Living Space that is open year round, with the exception of The Office - which is closed during the winter months. The Ashmont Suite or Unit 2 is in the second and third Floor, while @ The Boiler Room is located in the garden level.

***IF YOU ARE PLANNING OR LOOKING FOR A SPACE TO HOST A PARTY/EVENT/FRIENDS, OR TO BE IN A SPACE TO BE LOUD, THIS IS NOT THE SPACE FOR YOU.

Guest Access

The Ashmont apartment is a 2 bedroom / 2 bath apartment. One bedroom (The Map Room) has a queen size bed and its own ensuite bathroom. While the other room (The Elephant Room), comes with a full size bed and its own ensuite bathroom as well. The apartment includes an open living room and kitchen. Everything is brand new, modern with very comfortable beds and always new and crisp bedding/linens.

The Ashmont offered the space we needed for a brief visit to Boston (scheduled during Patriots Day weekend and the upcoming Boston Marathon). We appreciate having space available for members of our family to work on college work or check/respond to emails. The kitchen has everything you will need and the coffee/tea option was wonderful. The bedrooms have their own bathrooms.

Eddie is an EXCELLENT host. He was super responsive and helpful. The place was very clean and the decor was great. Subway is an easy 10 minute walk from house and we could go pretty much anywhere in the city. The only downside for us was not enough tall chairs for 4 adults to enjoy eating together, too few towels and washcloths, and the washer advertised in the description was only available to long term guests. Otherwise it was a great place to stay.

This was a lovely apartment with great amenities and well equipped kitchen. It was sparkling clean with comfortable beds. Just an FYI, it was farther from downtown than I expected; a 20-25 Uber/Lyft or 25-30 minute train ride, and there is not much within walking distance. Knowing that, it was a nice apartment with good outdoor patio

Charming restored Victorian house; immaculately maintained

This was a lovely Victorian home and it is evident that the owners take a lot of pride in maintaining it and providing for their guests. The beds were comfortable and the shower lovely. There were plenty of kitchen amenities for cooking, although we did not use them. The downsides were a couple. As others mention, there is not a lot of sound insulation. One night we had a family above us and you could hear very clearly the sound of little feet running overhead. You also can clearly hear road noise from the two nearest streets. Fortunately, both of these noises settled down by 10:00 so we didn't have any issues getting sleep. The house is on a very nice street, but, again as others have said, a block or two over the neighborhood is a little sketchier than we would have liked. But we had no issues whatsoever.The unit more than adequately served our purpose, which was to attend our daughter's graduation and move her stuff out of her apartment. Overall, it was roomy enough for the two of us and very clean.
