Beautiful property near Arnold Arboretum & MBTA seeks housemate

Furnished room -- $700-a-month in attractive home next to the beautiful Arnold Arboretum.

I am looking for one more roommate (Female only –) to join myself and another woman in a very nice home in Roslindale, located on a safe and friendly tree...
lined street. We are a 5 minute walk from Roslindale center which has a commuter rail station and stores and banks.
The home includes the living room dining room, kitchen and my bedroom on the 1st floor. Upstairs, there are 3.5 bedrooms and a full bath. The half bedroom and the guestroom closet have a little storage room, as well as my garage.
As a person with a disability (MS), I consider myself very fortunate to have state and federal coverage to hire aides to care for me. But I am also seeking roommates who can assist me minimally when my aides are not here. SMALL THINGS like getting a blanket, changing the station on my TV, or turning on the fan. I can pay $10-$20 per assistance.
Regular paid work as my PCA (personal care attendant) may also be available if someone is interested. That pays $20 + an hour, and is usually an evening shift 5-8 PM.

In terms of transportation – – The commuter rail into Boston is a 10 minute walk from the house, and 5 minutes more to Roslindale Square where you can catch a bus for a five minute ride into Forest Hills Station (Orange line, #39 bus). We are also on the #51 bus line between Forest Hills Station and Cleveland Circle (BC-BU).

Please write to me with a little information about yourself -- your interests and what you are looking for. What is your timing for moving?

Thanks, -Liz
