Secluded Tower Home in Bright Castle

A quiet, sunny and cheerful private 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment on the 2 top floors of a large 1872 2-family house near Union Square in Allston, which our children have come to call Bright Castle. The apartment has 2 private entrances, a fully-equipped kitchen, and an outdoor deck overlooking a garden in back. It's close to universities, 1/2 hour to Fenway by T, & not far from downtown Boston or Harvard Square, with many good restaurants, bars & music venues in the neighborhood. STR-529832

The space
There is a king-size bed in the master bedroom, a twin-size bed in the second bedroom, and a queen-size sofa bed in the living room - in other words, the apartment sleeps 5 (in 3 beds). There are two full bathrooms, both with showers. A fairly steep set of stairs links the two floors of the apartment, and both private entrances involve stairs. Driveway parking is available for 1 or 2 cars. Central air conditioning in the summer; central heating in winter.

Guest access
There is a small private outdoor deck for your use attached to the kitchen of the apartment, and you're welcome to spend time in the shared backyard. We have a large driveway that can accommodate 1 or 2 extra cars, & there is a private laundry room in the apartment with washer & dryer, which you are free to use. We have a lot of books in the house (in English, German and French), which you're welcome to read while you're there.

Other things to note
The ceiling in the master bedroom is sloped and low, and may be uncomfortable for tall people. The ceilings in the rest of the house are of normal height.

The place is not really suitable for small children, as there's a relatively steep stair between the two floors.
