About this home
Renovated and well maintained two-family on a corner lot between Waverley Square and Belmont Center, with major updates already done: foundation reinforced and basement waterproofed (2022), new roof (2024), new insulation, shingles and Trex back porches (2025), exterior paint (2025), new water line from the street, and full rewiring. The first floor unit has 2 bedrooms and 1 bath, a renovated kitchen with granite counters and stainless steel appliances, living room, dining room, and a large pantry with laundry. The second floor unit spans two levels with 4 bedrooms and 1 bath, a renovated kitchen with granite counters and stainless steel appliances, living room, dining room, large pantry, in-unit laundry and a private deck. The third floor offers an open primary bedroom with vaulted ceilings and a 4th bedroom, with water, sewer and gas lines already in place for a second full bath and a gas fireplace. 4+ off-street parking spaces. The first floor unit is rented for $3,000 until 6/30/27, and the second floor unit will be delivered vacant. A great fit for an investor, an owner-occupant offsetting the mortgage with rental income, or multigenerational living. Close to the Waverley and Belmont Center commuter rail stops (to Porter Square and North Station), shopping, restaurants and parks.
