I'm a writer and communications professional who's recently moved back to Boston from the West Coast. After months of staying in a borrowed room, I’m ready to find a real home. Not looking for anything super fancy, but rather a place with some character and charm.

Think more E. M. Forster than I.M. Pei.

What I'm hoping to find:
• A place in Belmont, JP, or similar neighborhood that is very walkable, close to nature, relaxed, not totally car-dependent, etc
• 2BR PLUS an office or study
• W/D in unit or in the building
• Living and dining rooms
• 1.5+ baths ideal
• Basement storage
• Budget: $2,600–$2,800/month

What you can count on:
• Verifiable $110K annual salary, great references
• No drama. Genuinely.

If you have something — or know someone who does — I'd love to hear from you.
