Cute house close to plenty of dining

This house is in a great location and within walking distance of a grocery store and a lot of dining options. The area is cute and the house is well maintained with plenty of room for 6 people. Downtown Boston is about 30 minutes away (depending on traffic) which was quite convenient. Would stay here again.

This house was conveniently located near the trolley (approx. 3 block walk) which took us to the trolley then subway to downtown area of Boston, so we could leave our vehicle in the driveway (which has a nice L-shaped driveway). The 3 bedroom / 2 bath house was roomy and comfortable for four friends. Large kitchen with plenty of ‘appliances’The host was quick to respond with questions about the house / the area…. We would stay here again if in the area.
