房源位置

Located in historic Fort Hill (Highland Park), the center of Boston's Roxbury neighborhood. My home is in a wonderful & diverse urban residential/bedroom community. Steeped in history since the 1630, this hill has hosted figures such as several of the key founders of Harvard University, George Washington and Henry Knox during the Siege of Boston in the revolution, to the famous abolitionist William Llyod Garrison (whose home is close by and the water fountain in front of the house is designed in his image). After transforming into one of the nation's first streetcar suburbs, now Fort Hill is one of the most sought after and up and coming residential neighborhoods in the city with a diverse community of young professionals, working class and long time residents. The neighborhood is a history lover or architect's dream with every period represented. We have a progressive and engaged group of residents where one of the world's leading experts in urban farming resides, lots of public spaces, urban wilds (including our wild turkeys), community gardens, and has become city's foremost leader in passive houses and energy positive homes.
From Wikipedia:
"Today, Fort Hill is home to an ethnically and linguistically diverse community. Fort Hill has been recognized for its sizable population of residents with Irish, Puerto Rican, Dominican, German and Sub-Saharan African roots.[13] Over the last decade Fort Hill has experienced an influx of professionals, artists and students, many of whom attend Northeastern University, Massachusetts College of Art and Design or Wentworth Institute of Technology. Fort Hill is also often referred to as a neighborhood that is notable for having a high concentration of residents living with same-sex partners,[14][15] and has a history of its residents advocating for gay rights.[16]"
My neighbors are wonderful and friendly, so please be sure to be friendly back and say hello to them as well.

Logan Airport ✈: Uber / Lyft is the easiest way to and from the Airport, which takes 15-35 mins depending on traffic. For public transit, T, take an airport shuttle bus from your terminal to the Airport T subway station (blue line). Travel in-bound to State T station where you will need to get off and switch to the orange line in-bound. Get off at Roxbury Crossing, and walk up the hill in 5 mins. 40 mins.
T (subway/metro) 🚇: The station is Roxbury Crossing 5 mins walk away and it's the 3rd stop to Back Bay 5 mins ride. Another 3 more stops from there takes you to Downtown Crossing 10 mins ride.
Bikes 🚲: In the city we have Bluebikes public bike share program, $6 for a 24 hour pass or $12 for a 72 hour pass. I highly recommend this as a way to discover the city.

Personal bikes are not allowed inside, but there are bike poles for storage out front across from the brownstone. Check out the photo for reference.
Walk 👣: 5-15 minutes walk to local restaurants, bars and grocery store. 15 minutes walking distance to Longwood Medical Area, Northeastern University, Museum of Fine Arts, etc and 25 minutes to Fenway Park, South End. Boston is a walking city where in 15 mins walk one neighborhood leads to another.
Parking 🚙: Plenty of free on street non permitted parking usually right next to the house.
Uber / Lyft 🚕: Very dependable and recommended compared to taxis which can unfortunately have terrible service, so I don't recommend taxis. Uber / Lyft
