About this home
Move right into this immaculate two-bedroom, two-bath home, where spacious rooms, thoughtful updates, and a phenomenal backyard create the ultimate year-round living experience. The updated eat-in kitchen is both stylish and functional, while wood floors and fireplaces add warmth and character. Generously proportioned rooms provide comfortable everyday living, and a first-floor den/office offers flexible space for working from home or relaxing. An updated bath and finished walk-out lower level provide additional flexible space for a family room, playroom, home gym, or hobbies. Step outside to a large, flat, fully fenced backyard—an ideal setting for entertaining, play, gardening, or simply unwinding. A one-car garage adds convenience and storage. Enjoy easy access to nearby parks (including a spray park for summer fun!), shopping, restaurants, public transportation, walking trails, major routes, and vibrant downtown Waltham. This home is a gem! Don't miss it!
