A house with a yard?

Quincy, maybe? https://www.redfin.com/MA/Quincy/45-Ames-St-02169/unit-SF/home/181485687

You could try looking in Arlington, but I can't guarantee you'd get to the Waterfront in 30 minutes.

Another vote for Quincy. Great bang for your buck.

Quincy is a good call, but with a budget of 4k you can find places (like this, this and maybe this) within walking distance to the T. Would be an easy 30 min ride on the red line (or CR) to where OP will be working.
