About this stay

A ground-floor queen with a porch worth sitting on.

The Front Porch is the lock-off suite on the ground floor of a 1929 house in the Putnam District. The porch is the whole point — three rocking chairs, a hanging swing, a low table for coffee or a glass of something later. Hill Avenue is right there; you'll watch students walk to class, dog-walkers loop the block, and on Saturdays in the fall the entire neighborhood become its own kind of parade route to the stadium.

Twice a day the freight train comes through — once around 6 AM and once near dusk. After the first pass you stop noticing; most guests end up timing their porch evenings to it.

"The porch is the suite. We made coffee, sat in the rockers, and watched the neighborhood do its thing every morning. Train at 6 was a feature, not a bug."

There's a wall-mounted Tesla charger on the property, primarily reserved for the upstairs Balcony Suite. If you're bringing an EV, message us before your stay — when the Balcony isn't simultaneously booked by another EV driver, the charger is usually available to you too.
The Front Porch (this one) is the ground floor — queen bed, lock-off entry, sits right on the porch with all the street life.
