About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Union Square House

In the middle of Union Square with tons of restaurants, music, bars and farmers market, yet on a small cul de sac with a private and comfy garden oasis. Best of all, steps to the new Train station to take you directly to all Boston has to offer.
We love our location and our home. Quirky yet comfy. Two floors of living with a full kitchen, new rain shower bathroom, and 3 bedrooms and a cozy living room.

Union Square was recently rated as one of the coolest neighborhoods in the world. Come see what it's all about.
