About This Home
Live on one of Jamaica Plain’s most desirable Pondside streets in this first-floor, walk-in 3-bed, 1-bath condo with big sunny windows and an eat-in kitchen, just a 5-minute walk to Jamaica Pond. This privately owned condo is in a two-unit building on Burroughs Street, close to Centre Street’s cafes and restaurants, parks, and transit. A welcoming front foyer opens directly from the main entry into a bright living room (former dining room) with original hardwood floors, oversized windows, and a classic built-in glass cabinet. All three bedrooms have hardwood floors, and the front bedroom has bay windows. The renovated 2018 eat-in kitchen features granite counters, gas cooking, stainless-steel fridge and dishwasher, microwave, extensive cabinet storage, and a huge pantry, with space for a dining table and durable wood-look luxury vinyl flooring. Outside, a large shared backyard and back deck provide rare outdoor space in the heart of JP. Practical features include ground-level access and one off-street parking space included in the rent. The unit also offers a free, designated washer and dryer plus a private storage room in the basement, along with updated smoke/CO detectors and electrical. The building was constructed before 1978 but has been deleaded and carries a 2018 Letter of Compliance. Heat is oil; tenants pay oil, gas for hot water and cooking, and electricity. No pets and no smoking. One-year lease from September 1, 2026 to August 31, 2027. Strong income, credit, references, and proof of renters insurance required.

Located about five miles southwest of downtown Boston, Jamaica Hills-Pond has many historic multi-family homes for rent. The commercial district lies along Centre Street and provides residents with a wide choice of local restaurants and stores.
Nature lovers will find much to explore in Jamaica Hills-Pond. Your apartment puts you within easy walking distance of Jamaica Pond, a 68-acre body of water surrounded by a 1.5-mile path perfect for walking or running. Go for a jog around the pond or rent a kayak from the boathouse and take to the water. Locals who prefer gardens head to the 281-acre Arnold Arboretum to stroll among plants and trees from around the world. Go birdwatching, admire the lilac collection, or sit under one of the maple trees on a lovely spring day. Afterward, walk over to Wonder Spice Cafe for Cambodian cuisine, and then visit J.P. Licks for ice cream.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
