NO BROKER FEE. Single-family. Your own house, your own everything. 🏡
A fully renovated West Roxbury home tucked on a quiet little hidden-gem street. And yes, it is an actual single-family house. No shared walls, no neighbor stomping around above your head, no one living downstairs. Just your own private home with a garage, a deck, and a backyard greenhouse that is honestly kind of a flex.
Inside, the 2022 renovation did the heavy lifting. You get an open, sun-soaked living and dining area with custom built-ins, a granite kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a breakfast bar, gorgeous floors, and a stained-glass window on the stairs for a little character. Two full bathrooms, one with a spa-style tiled glass shower, so nobody is ever waiting their turn.
Now the part renters love: central AC, central heat, AND rooftop solar that keeps the electric bill almost nonexistent. Recent bills have come in around $10 a month. Not a typo. Ten dollars.
Detached one-car garage plus off-street parking for two, steps to public transit, quick to I-95, and an easy hop into Boston, Brookline, and Newton.
Move-in ready, priced to rent fast, and zero broker fee. Come grab it before someone else does. Available August 1st.
NO BROKER FEE. 12-month lease, available August 1st. Rent $3,000/month. First/last month and security deposit due at signing. Owner pays for and maintains the rooftop solar, so your electric bill stays minimal (recent bills around $10/month). Renter responsible for gas and electric. Central heat and AC. Detached garage plus 2 off-street spaces included. No smoking.

About Upper Washington-Spring
Street
Upper Washington-Spring Street, located between Downtown Crossing and Chinatown, is a historic and commercial Boston neighborhood with a dense streetscape and a transit-rich core. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Washington Street and Essex Street corner, where neon-lit theaters, late-night eateries, and small storefronts keep the sidewalks in motion. Pillar venues include Emerson Colonial Theatre, the Paramount Theatre, and the historic Opera House. Brick-and-stone midrises mix with restored facades and newer residential towers, creating a layered skyline at street level. Side streets shift quickly from retail corridors to quieter blocks with pocket plazas and hotel lobbies. The Orange and Red Line stations stitch the area into the city’s daily rhythm.
