About this home
Located in desirable Jason Heights is this bright and sunny 10-room, 4-bed, 2.5 bath home. Sited beautifully on a spacious lot, this 1937 colonial has been lovingly lived in by the same family for almost 50 years. It offers classic charm, generous living space, and a terrific location just blocks to Menotomy Rocks Park, a bucolic 35-acre green space with fields, wooded trails, and a pond. The main level has an eat-in kitchen, dining room with built-in hutch, and living room with fireplace and screened-in porch access. The sunroom / family room addition has a cathedral ceiling and loads of windows looking onto the backyard and will be your favorite hang-out space. Upstairs, the main bedroom has an en-suite bath and 2 closets, plus there are two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and separate office overlooking Jason Street. The third floor has the 4th bedroom and unfinished storage space, and with a little work the lower level – with its stone fireplace and plenty of built-ins – would make a great family room. A two-car garage adds valuable convenience and storage. Other features: slate roof, central air on the second floor, and a mini-split in the dining room. With its fantastic location, comfortable layout, and tremendous potential, this Jason Heights Colonial is ready for its next chapter. Enjoy the holidays in your new home!
Jason Heights, located between Arlington Center and East Arlington, is a residential and walkable Arlington neighborhood with leafy side streets and a compact commercial strip. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Massachusetts Avenue near Jason Street, where corner cafés, independent shops, and everyday services keep the sidewalks active. Local pillars include Kickstand Cafe, the Capitol Theatre, and Menotomy Grill & Tavern. Housing reads as classic Greater Boston: wood-frame multi-families, tidy porches, and small yards set along a gentle rise. Spy Pond Park and the Minuteman Bikeway shape daily routines with water views and a long, car-free route. A steady rhythm of buses along Mass Ave links the area to nearby squares and Cambridge.
