About this property

Skylit Suite in Musical home

Lofty top floor with skylights. This guest suite has a queen bed, bathroom with shower and skylight, and its own entrance from the back yard of my house. Two flights of stairs. You can walk two short blocks to the Southwest Corridor where you'll find bike and running trails and the T transit. Discover the charms of Jamaica Plain: its locally-owned businesses, small breweries, cute coffee shops, art studios, and lots of nice outdoor space for recreation and relaxation.

Best suited for individuals and couples. If you register with three guests and let host know at the time of making your reservation, a good-quality air mattress can be provided.

Ask about the option (for additional fee) to use 7' Bechstein grand piano, as available.

About the host

Hosted by Catherine Bent

Host profile image
Hello! I'm Catherine, a musician and college professor. I love traveling, reading, cooking, and outdoor activities. I'm from the UK originally, and besides Boston I have lived in New York City and Rio de Janeiro. I've been in Jamaica Plain since 2007 and love the parks, the variety of local small businesses, and the diverse community. I think you will too! BLM and LGBTQ+ ally.

Why they chose this property

This is a typical Jamaica Plain 3-storey house, 100 years old, simple and comfortable. It has new heat and AC systems (2018), and nice renovations throughout. There is a sweet park on the corner, where my friends and I play music in the warmer months, next to a playground and a medical clinic. An array of local parks (5-10 minutes walk away) make up Boston's Emerald Necklace, for endless exploration and tranquility within sight of Downtown. The picture above is of Jamaica Pond, a beautiful lake within walking distance.

What makes this property unique

If you want access to a piano, there is a 7' Bechstein sometimes available for rental. Ask host in advance.
