Vibrant Center entrance, expanded Cape awaits you in the highly desirable and super convenient Waltham Highlands community. Beautiful Living room with fireplace plus an adjacent 3 season Sunroom for a cozy time. Sunny, full cabinet kitchen with granite counters, island, and pass-thru breakfast bar to Dining room. The family room just off the kitchen provides even more fun with its cathedral ceiling, surround windows, and installed flat screen TV. Love the large and attractive Master bedroom with cathedral ceiling, 2 additional bedrooms as well as a 4th bedroom on the 1st floor currently used as an office. The Lower level has a large front to back recreation room to use as a play room, hobby spot, exercise room or office. Fantastic storage space on each side of the house at the rear, under the family room and under the sunroom. Close to Prospect Hill Park, public transportation, shoppinng and major routes. See it today and make 61 Prentice your own!
