Furnished Apartments in Waltham, Massachusetts

Why Waltham Works

Waltham gives you plenty to enjoy close to home. Moody Street is known for its restaurants, cafés, pubs, and shops, while the city itself has a strong mix of established neighborhoods, businesses, and everyday conveniences.

Waltham is also home to Bentley University and Brandeis University and has a substantial business, technology, and life-sciences presence, including major employers such as Thermo Fisher Scientific and AstraZeneca. Nearby Lexington, Burlington, Newton, and Watertown add even more employment, dining, shopping, and services within easy reach.

For getting around Greater Boston, the location is hard to beat. I-95/Route 128 is approximately 1.5 miles from J.E., Route 2 about 2 miles, and the Massachusetts Turnpike/I-90 about 6 miles. Alewife Station in North Cambridge is about 7 miles away and serves as the northern end of the MBTA Red Line, with direct service to Harvard Square, Kendall/MIT, downtown Boston, and South Station.

Waltham also offers plenty of opportunity to get outside. The Charles River runs through the city with walking and biking paths along the riverfront, and the nearby 10-mile Minuteman Bikeway connects Lexington, Arlington, and Cambridge.

Traveling Nurses and Healthcare Professionals

Traveling healthcare professionals are an important part of who we serve. J.E. Waltham is set up around the things that matter when you're coming to Greater Boston for an assignment of several weeks, several months, or longer.

Your apartment is ready when you arrive, with a well-equipped kitchen, all utilities included, air conditioning, complimentary Wi-Fi, and cable television. Linens and towels are provided, laundry is conveniently located in the building, and residents also receive a complimentary membership to a local full-service health club and ample free parking.

You can unpack, settle in, and focus on your assignment rather than spending your first days setting up another household.

Just as important is knowing what happens if something in the apartment needs attention. With an Airbnb or other individual short-term rental, service can depend on the availability and responsiveness of a single host. At J.E., onsite management and maintenance are backed by 24/7 emergency service. You know who you're renting from and who to contact if there is a problem.

Healthcare assignments change. Extensions happen and departure dates move. J.E.'s month-to-month rental structure gives you flexibility without committing to a traditional year-long lease for a temporary assignment.

Many healthcare travelers also arrange housing before ever arriving in Massachusetts. We can discuss available apartments and floor plans, help you understand how the Waltham location works for your hospital or healthcare facility, and answer your questions before you arrive. If an employer or company is arranging your stay, direct billing can also be accommodated when appropriate.

Healthcare Destinations Near J.E. Waltham

Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Brigham and Women's Hospital in the Longwood Medical Area are approximately 10.5-11 miles away, while Massachusetts General Hospital is approximately 12 miles away. Boston-area traffic varies, so mileage should not be treated as a guaranteed commute time.

Temporary Housing for Work, Relocation, and Life in Between

J.E. Waltham works well for people relocating for a new position, consultants and project personnel, employees on temporary assignments, and companies arranging furnished housing for employees, with direct company billing available when appropriate.

J.E. also provides a comfortable, temporary home between homes, during construction or renovations, when fire, water damage, or another loss covered by insurance means you cannot stay in your home, or during a separation, divorce, or other change in living arrangements.

Whatever brings you here, you do not have to create another household for a temporary period. You can move into a furnished apartment with the essentials already in place and focus on what comes next.

Whatever is creating the need for temporary housing, tell us what you know about your timing and what you need in an apartment. Even if every date is not settled yet, we can help you understand your options and find a comfortable place to live while the rest of your plans come together.

Furnished Housing Near Bentley University and Brandeis University

Whether you're coming for a semester, graduate program, research project, visiting appointment, university position, or helping a student arrange housing, J.E. Waltham gives you a furnished apartment that is ready when you arrive.

For a temporary stay, that can save both time and money. There is no furniture to buy, utilities to establish, or internet service to arrange. All utilities and complimentary Wi-Fi are included, along with cable television, linens and towels, and in-building laundry. Residents also receive a complimentary membership to a local full-service health club and ample free parking. Instead of setting up—and paying separately for—the pieces of another household, you can move in and begin living normally from the start.

J.E.'s month-to-month rental structure also provides flexibility when a semester, research project, visiting position, or other university stay does not fit neatly into a traditional lease.

For families helping arrange housing, the setting and the people behind the apartment matter too. J.E.'s apartments are in a safe, well-established residential neighborhood, with ample free parking in our well-lit parking areas. Parents can speak directly with our Waltham property manager before move-in and continue to have that familiar contact afterward. As a mother herself, she understands many of the practical questions and concerns families have when helping a student settle away from home.

Onsite management and maintenance, backed by 24/7 emergency service, add another level of reassurance throughout the stay.

Lasell University and Regis College are also approximately five to six miles away and may work well for some university-related stays.
