Waltham Home of the Week: Lot 2A Matthew Ln.

New construction brings so many levels of value to its residents. First, builders can take advantage of Energy-Star rated appliances and technology to deliver the most efficient equipment, attracting many potential buyers in today's eco-friendly times...and of course, it's extremely beneficial to monthly expenses. Also, every element of the home is fresh and maintenance costs will be held to a minimum for many years. A third gain, specifically to this property, is its location. This spectacular home is sited in what is considered the best area of Waltham, Pigeon Hill Estate IV, on a lightly traveled cul-de-sac in a million dollar neighborhood. These areas definitely solidify the standing of this week's Home of the Week, but there is so much more to describe.

This spacious 3,150 square foot colonial offers eight beautiful rooms across two finished levels with a blueprint that favors entertaining yet also resourcefully designed for intimate gatherings. The first floor consists of a lovely 16 x 14 square foot living room and a charming 16 x 16 square foot dining area. The 23 x 17 square foot gourmet kitchen offers an abundance of cabinets and granite counter space, including a handy center island and the 20 x 16 square foot family room provides a warm, relaxed setting with its simple, tasteful decor and gas fireplace.

The second level hosts four bedrooms: a 16 x 16 square foot master suite with a walk-in closet and private bath with a Jacuzzi tub, three rooms at 16 x 13, 13 x 11 and 13 x 14 square feet and another full shared bath. The third level, not included in the listed square footage, has already been roughed for residents who choose to expand this lovely home.

This property is filled with many upgraded appointments, including a hydro air heating system and in-ground sprinklers, but visitors will immediately be impressed by its exterior introduction as it rests on a sunny knoll and shows off its flourishing new plantings and quality construction. Call today for a private viewing. It has only been on the market for two short weeks and will likely remain available for very long.
