Every house has a story. This story began in 1958 when the current owner purchased a parcel of land located adjacent to land that is protected under an Agricultural Preservation Restriction and works to preserve local open space through the Belmont Land Trust. The owners had a vision that created an expansive cape-style house, built by John Regan from Wellesley, to raise their family in. This was one of the first homes on Taylor Road. Deceptive in size with a modest exterior, this house offers large rooms including a heated enclosed sunroom, first floor primary bedroom and direct access to a two-car garage. The unfinished lower level and attic offer an opportunity to add finished space. With endless possibilities, this house awaits a new owner who has a vision to bring this special property back to its full potential. Great location at the end of a “no through road,” across from what was Sergi's Farm and now “Belmont Acres Farm.” Convenient to elementary, middle and Belmont High School, public transportation and is on the Cambridge-side of Belmont. Amazing potential for end-users or builders! LAST PHOTO - ENVISION WHAT THIS HOME COULD BE (AI GENERATED).

Belmont Center, located between Cambridge and Waltham, is a walkable and commuter-friendly Belmont neighborhood with a compact village center and a classic New England streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Leonard Street and Concord Avenue crossroads, where independent cafés, bakeries, bookstores, and small boutiques line the sidewalks. Community pillars include the historic Belmont Town Hall, the Beech Street Center, and the Belmont Gallery of Art. Early-20th-century Colonials and Victorians sit on leafy blocks that slope toward the commuter rail. Pocket greens and playing fields break up the residential grid. Sidewalk life stays active around the station and the central square.
