About this home
Attention investors- don't miss this great opportunity in one of the top neighborhoods in East Watertown with a highly desirable location! Solid two family on a spacious lot with a large rear yard- both units have remodeled kitchens and baths done in 2017, new roof in 2017, resurfaced driveway in 2019, new back entrance done in 2021 (railing, stairs, and door) and replaced supports and beams for decks. There is possible expansion potential in the attic, gas systems, and a two car garage. This property is a stone's throw from Bus 71 to Harvard Sq, short distance to Watertown Sq and Cushing Sq, Belmont, plus I-90, and Storrow Drive. Easy access to shops and restaurants.
