    What's special

    A rare opportunity in one of Watertown's most beloved neighborhoods, this Victorian multi-family home seamlessly blends preserved historic character with modern living. Spanning over 2,800 square feet, the home retains its original soul while showcasing thoughtful updates throughout, including an updated kitchen and bath with radiant heat in the owners' unit, custom built-ins, recessed lighting and a fireplace. The house has a newer roof and separate heating systems between the units. What can't be missed is the professionally designed grounds by Yardzen, best appreciated from the lovely porch, and nothing short of spectacular — a curated outdoor retreat featuring a charming seating area, vegetable garden and a rich tapestry of seasonal plantings that deliver color and interest from spring through fall. With driveway EV charging, and superb location moments from Watertown Square, Arsenal Yard, and the new 2026 Watertown High School.
