Best of both worlds: this airy and light, newly renovated private studio is set in a beautiful, secluded backyard/garden. Easy walk to restaurants, shops and acres of green space. Your reservation confirms that you have read "Other Things to Note" in The Space section below and "House Rules" before booking. Guests can only book for themselves. We are 5-7 minutes from the 39 bus and 15 from the Orange line. There is a microwave, fridge, counter and and sink but no stove or cooking options. The studio is accessed down the garden path from our driveway. A wall of windows frames a beautiful view of the garden. We offer coffee and tea with milk, cream and granola for approx three days. We are buying granola during COVID but hope to get back to making granola soon! You have your own brick patio and shared access to the yard and garden. Free off-street parking available. We live upstairs and are available if you have any questions. We will also respect your privacy if you prefer to be on your own. Esther and Ann Jamaica Plain is a vibrant, diverse neighborhood, with lots of great coffee shops, restaurants, and funky little stores. JP is also blessed with green space. We're surrounded by the Emerald Necklace, a string of parks designed by Fredrick Law Olmstead. This includes a gorgeous, free 280 acre arboretum just down the hill. The Jamaica Street stop on the 39 Bus is two blocks away. The Forest Hills Stop of the subway is a 10-15 minute walk, Hubway (bike-sharing) and Zipcar are also within a 10-minute walk. We have off-street parking if you need it, but driving isn't really an ideal way to get around Boston. Airbnb's policy restricts 3rd party reservations for insurance and communication reasons. We must turn anyone away who did not make THEIR OWN reservation. We are obliged to report anyone who books for someone else. We are on the top of a small hill that could be difficult for some people. The path to the studio has ten shallow steps down from the driveway which you can see with in the photos. Sadly we cannot accommodate any pets due to allergy and health concerns of hosts and other guests.
