Spacious 8BR home near Boston, ideal for 31+ night stays. Over 8,000 sq ft on two landscaped acres with a full kitchen, large dining room, multiple living areas, home office, fast Wi‑Fi, and smart TVs. Enjoy a quiet residential setting with a seasonal pool and gardens—perfect for relocating families, visiting professionals, and extended executive stays.
This home is managed by an experienced local team that focuses on providing a smooth, low‑key experience for extended 31+ night stays. Check‑in is handled with a simple, secure self‑access process, and our team remains available by message or phone throughout your stay for practical questions or basic local guidance.
Before arrival, we’ll confirm key details such as check‑in time, parking, and any specific needs related to your long‑term stay. During your visit, we can help coordinate additional cleanings or connect you with local services when reasonably available, while respecting your privacy and the quiet, residential character of the neighborhood.
The estate sits at the end of a quiet, private drive in one of Dedham’s most established residential areas, surrounded by mature trees and classic New England architecture. It offers a calm, neighborhood setting while still providing convenient access to major routes into Boston and surrounding communities.
A short drive brings you to Dedham Square and Legacy Place, where you’ll find everyday essentials, grocery options, cafés, restaurants, and retail. Nearby parks, walking paths, and the Charles River area offer opportunities for jogging, cycling, or simply getting outside between work and school commitments.
For academic and professional visits, the home is well‑situated for driving into Boston‑area universities, hospitals, and business districts. Typical drive times (traffic‑dependent) place you within reach of downtown Boston and institutions like Harvard and MIT, making the property a practical base for extended stays.
This is a quiet, family‑oriented neighborhood, so guests are expected to respect local norms, observe quiet hours, and treat the estate as a long‑term home rather than an event venue.
Guests have exclusive use of the entire 8,000+ sq. ft. home and the private 2‑acre grounds during their stay, including the yard, patios, and seasonal pool.
Entry is handled via a secure, keyless smart lock system; your unique access code and arrival details will be provided before check‑in. The property includes a large private driveway (and garage, where applicable), offering convenient parking for multiple vehicles and easy unloading.
Our team may visit the exterior periodically for routine maintenance such as landscaping, snow removal, and pool service (in season), scheduled to minimize disruption. Otherwise, the home is your private residence for the duration of your stay, and we remain available by message or phone if any issues arise.
The outdoor pool is typically open seasonally, weather permitting, roughly from early May through mid‑October. Specific dates and availability may vary with local conditions.
Here’s a “space” section reworked to support 31+ day, residential use and remove the hotel/party/event vibe, while keeping the core features.

**The space**
This 8,000+ sq. ft. home sits on a private 2‑acre lot and is designed for comfortable long‑term living. Multiple living rooms, a large dining room, sunrooms, and a fully equipped kitchen provide plenty of space for families, colleagues, or multi‑generational groups to spread out, work, and relax.
Natural light fills the main living areas, highlighting hardwood floors and classic decor. Several lounge spaces offer sofas, armchairs, smart TVs, board games, a small library, and fireplaces, creating quiet places to read, work, or unwind at the end of the day.
The kitchen features full‑size appliances and everything you need for everyday cooking: stove, oven, microwave, refrigerator/freezer, dishwasher, toaster, blender, cookware, dishes, and glassware. A grand dining room, breakfast table, and seating at the kitchen island make it easy to share meals without feeling crowded. The in‑law suite offers its own smaller kitchen and dining area for added convenience and privacy.
There are six bedrooms in the main house and two in the in‑law suite, providing flexible sleeping arrangements for longer stays:
- Bedrooms 1–6: King‑size beds
- Bedroom 7: Queen‑size bed + two single beds
- Bedroom 8: Full‑size bed + two single beds
Each bedroom includes quality mattresses and linens, storage (closets and/or dressers), bedside lighting, and many have smart TVs and workspaces.
Five bathrooms serve the home, with a mix of walk‑in showers and tubs, vanities with mirrors, toilets, towels, hair dryers, and basic starter toiletries. For extended stays, guests typically replenish personal items as needed.
Outdoors, landscaped gardens, a seasonal swimming pool, patios with seating, a BBQ grill, lawn areas, rock formations, and a small pond create a peaceful setting to enjoy fresh air and casual meals. The grounds are meant for everyday relaxation and quiet enjoyment rather than events, making the property a calm base for long‑term stays near Boston.
Getting Around
We highly recommend arriving by car, as it offers the ultimate freedom to explore the estate and the beautiful New England region. If you would like to travel in style, please inquire about our MyLuxVaca luxury vehicle rentals (Bentley, Porsche, Mercedes, and more).
Proximity to Airports:
✔ Boston Logan International Airport (BOS): Approximately 34 minutes away.
✔ Rhode Island T.F. Green International Airport (PVD): Approximately 45 minutes away.
Convenient Transportation Options:
While a car is recommended for the best experience, there are several easy ways to get around without driving:
✔ MBTA Commuter Rail: Convenient access for trips into downtown Boston.
✔ Rideshare: Uber and Lyft are readily available and typically arrive within minutes.
✔ Bus: Local bus lines are accessible nearby for local exploration.
Whether you are heading into the city for a meeting or exploring historic landmarks, our estate serves as the perfect, well-connected home base.
Here’s a version that keeps the professional, high‑end feel but sounds more like a well‑managed long‑term residence and less like a five‑star hotel or event venue. You can adjust names (Commonwealth Estate / MyLuxVaca) to match the platform.

### The Commonwealth Estate — Long‑Stay Policies & Guest Care
Our goal is to provide a comfortable, well‑maintained home for extended 31+ night stays. Please review the following standards for cleanliness, home care, and neighborhood respect.
**Home Preparation & Cleanliness**
The estate is professionally cleaned and inspected before each new tenancy. Our housekeeping team follows a thorough cleaning process so that the home is ready for everyday living at check‑in. For longer stays, we can help arrange additional cleanings on an as‑needed basis.
**Optional Mid‑Stay Cleaning**
For guests on extended visits, optional mid‑stay cleaning services are available upon request. These may include fresh linens, basic kitchen tidy‑up, trash removal, and light cleaning of common areas, scheduled at times that work for you.
**Support During Your Stay**
We are happy to help coordinate practical services typical for longer‑term residency, such as additional cleaning or local service referrals. Any third‑party services are arranged directly with providers and are subject to their availability and terms.
**Smoke‑Free Home**
To protect the interior and furnishings, smoking is not permitted inside the home. Evidence of indoor smoking may result in an additional cleaning and odor‑remediation fee.
**Quiet Residential Neighborhood**
The Commonwealth Estate is located in a quiet, residential neighborhood. We ask all guests to:
- Observe quiet hours between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m.
- Refrain from hosting parties, events, weddings, or large gatherings.
- Limit visitors to typical residential use and comply with all house rules.
Unauthorized events or serious noise disturbances may result in termination of the stay in accordance with platform and house rules.
**Cancellations**
Standard platform cancellation policies apply. If you are booking through another site or direct agreement, specific terms will be provided prior to booking.
Thank you for treating the property as your temporary home and for respecting our neighbors and community.
