About this home

Desirable two-family home with three levels of living, 17 rooms, 6 beds, 2 baths located on a dead-end street in bustling Watertown. A perfect mix of character, location, and potential! Situated adjacent to the Oakley Country club, this commuter friendly investment is steps from Cushing Sq., public transportation, Starbucks, shops, and restaurants. The first floor is a well-lit 7 room, 2 bed, 1 bath unit with a fireplace and hardwood floors. The bonus 3 season room off the back bedroom is great extra space. The top unit is a bright two-level apartment with 4 bedrooms and 1 bath. Features include hardwood floors, fireplace, balcony, deck, and plenty of storage! The roof was replaced about 10 years ago and the solar panels are owned and transferable. There is a 2-car garage and paved driveway for off-street parking.
