Ball Square Apartment

One bedroom on 2nd floor apartment with shared bathroom (with one other person). Common areas are the kitchen, dining room, living room, and back porch. A free washer and dryer unit is available in the apartment. Utilities (gas, electricity, and... internet) cost around $150 per month, depending on usage. The ground floor is a separate unconnected apartment. Your housemates will be two male Tufts graduate students. One has the 3rd floor apartment, which is mostly independent and has its own bathroom. We both mostly keep to ourselves except for the occasional household activity. The apartment is within walking distance of the Green Line (5 min), Tufts (10 min), and the Red Line (15 min).
