Fantastic opportunity to buy into this desirable neighborhood surrounded by beautiful homes. This well loved 3 bedroom Cape Cod style home was once home to a family of seven. Located in a very quiet neighborhood in the Highlands section of Waltham, this side of Hawthorne Road is not a cut-through. The first floor den could be used as a spare bedroom. Within walking distance to retail and restaurants on Main Street, Prospect Hill Park, Drake Playground and Plympton Elementary School. Surprising views of the Boston skyline can be seen from the home's well-built screened-in porch and kitchen. Very desirable basement walkout leads to a cozy and level backyard. With a little TLC this home can become your forever home. Being sold as is.
