-- October 2011 and marathon 2012 fully booked across all of our apartments. --

Welcome to an adorable ground floor studio apartment, located in an 1860s building at the very top of the Hill and the center of downtown Boston. This true to name, Boston pied à Terre is eco-friendly, luxurious and simultaneously shows off its historical origins with exposed beams and re-claimed architectural elements. The studio has very easy access to the street and direct access to the patio. The owner’s mission is to live with a small footprint but without compromise.

Location: Just 2 minute walk to the Mass. State House and Freedom Trail and an urban Whole Foods grocer; 8 minute walk to three subway "T" lines, the Boston Common and Charles Streets boutique shops and fine dining. 15 minute walk you will reach Faneuil Hall, Newbury Street, the North End, Theatre District and TD Garden.

Basics: The kitchen is very well appointed with beautiful slate counters, nickel fixtures, deep sink w/disposal, Miele dishwasher, gas range/oven and full-sized refrigerator. The bed is a Beauty-Rest plush-firm queen with down pillows and sateen sheets. The bathroom has full-sized tub and shower with nickel fixtures and original cross-hatch beams overhead. Washer/dryer is in the hall around the corner. Place to keep bike.

Eco-Green: Aside from a great example of small-space design in a location that promotes walking and public transportation; bed linens are eco-certified and cleaning agents, paper supplies and soaps/shampoos are earth-friendly whenever possible. We recycle. Cloth shopping totes are hanging in the closet and the electricity is from wind.

Essentials: No smoking, no pets, no parking (ask), sleeps 2 max. Includes all utilities and furnishings, ground floor, direct access patio. The owner has written a very detailed manual for the apartment and for all services and restaurants in the neighborhood.

We also have other studio units in the neighborhood with different profiles, so just ask.
