Set on a sunlit corner lot in North Waltham's desirable Lakeview neighborhood, this updated Colonial brings together classic character and meaningful modern upgrades — from gleaming hardwood floors to 2022 mini-split heating and cooling and a fully refreshed deck in 2024.
The main level unfolds as one inviting, open-concept space for living, dining, and gathering. At its center, the kitchen pairs white shaker cabinetry with quartz countertops, a tile backsplash, a farmhouse sink, and stainless steel appliances around a generous center island. From there, the flow continues seamlessly to a practical mudroom, a convenient half bath, and a slider opening onto the wraparound Trex deck — ideal for morning coffee or evening dinners outdoors. A sun-filled sun porch offers yet another spot to settle in and watch the seasons change.
Upstairs, four bedrooms and two full baths provide comfortable separation, anchored by a generously sized primary suite with a dual-vanity bath and a glass-enclosed shower. Downstairs, the finished walkout basement adds genuine flexibility, complete with a wet bar and full bath — equally suited as guest space or a private fitness area.
A double driveway offers ample off-street parking, a rare convenience this close to the city. The Lakeview neighborhood rounds out the appeal: stroll to Hardy Pond, Pizzi Farm, local parks, shopping, and public transit, with easy access to Rt. 128 and Rt. 2 for an effortless commute. This is a home that has been thoughtfully cared for, ready for its next chapter.
