About this home
Welcome to the Warrendale section of Waltham. This move-in-ready cape is located on one of the most desirable sections of Waltham, Warrendale. With 1,656 sq of living area, this home boasts three bedrooms, one & 1/2 bathrooms, an updated kitchen (with stainless steel appliances, soapstone counters, farmhouse sink, and a touch-less gooseneck faucet), a very bright dining room with two built in cabinets, a large formal living room (with a gas fireplace and an entire wall of built in custom book shelves), and a family room with a slider that takes you to a huge fully fenced yard. Just off of the kitchen is the laundry/mudroom (access to the backyard) that also has a 1/2 bathroom. For those hot summer days, not only does the house have central air conditioning, all three bedrooms have ceiling fans. There are hardwood floors all through the house (except kitchen & bathrooms) that are in excellent condition. The current owners had the entire house resided with brand new siding just this past summer. The attached one car garage allows easy access to the house without going through the front door, though you won't need keys since the front door has a keyless touch pad for easier access. With multiple access points out to the large completely level 12,694 lot, you will make many memories in this yard. You can store all of your yard furniture and tools in the oversized shed in the corner of the yard. The location of this house provides easy access to area schools, ballfields, playgrounds and a water spray park. Just get the moving company ready and make this home.

Warrendale, located between Beaver Brook Reservation and the Charles River, is a residential and light-industrial Waltham neighborhood with a park-edge setting and a commuter-rail backdrop. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Moody Street corridor near the Waltham Common, where indie cafés, old-school diners, and small storefronts set a steady, walkable rhythm. Community pillars include The Charles River Museum of Industry & Innovation, The GORE Place, and the Waltham Farmers’ Market. Housing reads as classic New England: compact capes, mid-century ranches, and tidy multifamily blocks. Beaver Brook’s trails and playing fields pull daily routines outdoors. MBTA rail and Route 128 frame the edges with a practical, connected feel.
