About this home

Sited at the summit of Watertown’s great hill, and located at the corner of two residential side streets, this delightful Colonial Revival single-family stucco-faced residence has not appeared on the open market for 57 years. The property has many desirable features; anyone looking for a handsome house at a sought-after location is certain to be seriously interested. Turned sideways to the street, the house is approached through a landscaped walkway leading to the latticed front porch, which opens onto a gracious entry hall and period stair. A superb first floor plan offers many rooms and several options for living and dining areas. Beautiful green views are visible from every window, a rare characteristic of any house. Master bedroom suite, a treetop finished sunroom ideal as a nursery, two additional bedrooms, and a full bath complete the 2nd floor. Attic expansion potential. The house has superb sun exposures, a good-size lot for games and lots of gardening, and a 2-car garage.
