About this home

Four-Bedroom Cape in Arlington Heights, Across from the Arlington ReservoirThis four-bedroom, one-bath Cape sits on a 7,579 sq ft lot on Lowell Street in Arlington, MA, directly across from the Arlington Reservoir and its walking trails. The home has hardwood floors on the main level, a full bathroom, and a garage under the house plus driveway parking for two.The layout follows the classic Cape plan, with two bedrooms on the main level and two on the second floor. Four bedrooms leave room for a home office, a guest room, or dedicated hobby space alongside everyday living. The home is in move-in condition.Much of the appeal is the location. The reservoir trails are across the street, and the Minuteman Bike Path and Lexington Community Farm are close by. Arlington Heights shops, restaurants, and MBTA bus service to the Alewife and Harvard Red Line stations are a short trip away. The home is in the Peirce Elementary School district.For anyone who values outdoor access and a straightforward floor plan in an established Arlington Heights setting, this home is worth a closer look.

About Great

Meadows

Great Meadows, located between Lexington Center and the Minuteman Bikeway corridor, is a residential and conservation-minded Lexington neighborhood with broad meadow views and wooded trail edges. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Great Meadow loop at the trailheads near the Arlington Reservoir paths, where joggers, cyclists, and dog-walkers set a steady outdoor rhythm. Housing reads as classic New England—Colonial revivals, mid-century splits, and well-kept capes—set back behind stone walls and mature maples. The landscape shifts from open fields to wetland pockets, with seasonal birdlife and long sightlines. Lexington Center’s independent anchors—Cary Memorial Library, Lexington Venue, and the Lexington Farmers Market—add culture and a weekly gathering point. Daily routines often trace the same lines: bike commutes on the Minuteman and quiet walks through conservation land.
