Sweet deal!
This listing is 30% below the median price for 1 bedroom apartments in East Watertown.
Property Id: 2750759 Private 1 bed 1 bath for rent in Watertown (near Watertown High School) in a shared 2BR/2BA condo with a 1-year lease starting September 1st, 2026. DM me with a blurb about yourself and what you are looking for if you have serious interest (let's not waste each other's time). # About the place The unit has a multi-floor layout with plenty of space. The first floor is a dedicated entrance and mudroom. The second floor features the shared common areas (fully furnished kitchen, living room, and dining room), along with your private bedroom and bathroom. I live on the third floor. - Rent: $1900/month (including heat + water). - Electricity + internet is split (~$80/person/month). - In-unit washer and dryer. - Driveway parking. - 3-min walk to bus 71 (to Harvard), 8-min walk to bus 70 (to Central), and 15-min walk to bus 57 and other express buses to Boston. - No smoking, no drugs, no pets. # A little bit about me (aka your roommate) The owner of the place. 30s working professional in tech industry who likes minimalism and low-key living style. I spend more time outside (working in-office/hanging) than inside. I enjoy the occasional casual gathering with friends on weekends but generally keep things quiet. I love rock climbing, hiking, biking, puzzles, board games. And last but not least, I enjoy exploring new food restaurants because it's the universal love language. # What I'm looking for - Someone with a compatible lifestyle and will treat this place with respect. - Someone with a common sense of taking the trash/recycle out when it's full and not having a rager at 11pm. - Someone who will leave the common area as how they find it (aka clean up after themselves). - Someone that appreciate direct and constructive discussion so we can both build trust and shared understanding. - We can be friends (or not) so long as we maintain a harmonious and friendly living situation.
