Watertown is located six miles northwest of Boston in Middlesex
County along the Charles River. Founded in 1640 it is one of the
original Massachusetts Bay settlements. Settlers landed on its fertile
shores thousands of years after the Indians. It grew from a mill town
to a wider industrial base. Watertown Square is what resulted from
industry growth along the Charles River. Further developments have
changed the landscape to include modern condos, town homes and single
family homes. The Perkins School for the Blind and Oakley Country
Club are converted estates. Today condo conversions are a popular
choice for new arrivals, second home purchases and long time
residents. The small town enjoys its convenient proximity to Boston,
unique social and residential make up and unique local characteristics
and identity.
Watertown is like most suburbs of Boston, steeped in history
and continuing to grow as property values escalate with the rise in
population and not so dramatic rise in inventory. Its diversity is in
part due to its convenience to Boston, its lower priced offerings
compared to Boston's more expensive neighborhoods. Connections by
railway, bus, and the Massachusetts Turnpike have made Watertown a
waiting oasis to buy a more affordable condo in an "attractive,
affordable, alternative to more expensive commercial communities." Its
period homes and historic neighborhoods are perfect places for buyers
looking to own a single family home, town house, or multi-unit
building. A growing demand has meant a rise in modern developed
communities with condos and town homes.
Residents of Watertown engage their city and take pride in
calling it their own. it streets are alive with music and "boast" a
higher level of citizen involvement. Watertown Square show cases its
history, current business activity, shops, boutiques, shopping malls,
swimming pools, tennis clubs and skating rinks. Other venues include
the riverbank, parks, nearby forest preserves, yachting and more.
Downtown Boston is a short car ride or commute on the Greenline for
all of the other social an cultural options it can provide
Watertown continues to play a vital role in history. It was the
temporary seat for government during the American Revolution. Many
historical sites and homes dot the landscapes. Downtown Watertown or
Watertown Square is filled with small businesses, shops, and converted
homes. You will find plenty to see and do on Main St, Mt. Auburn Ave
and Marshall. Historic sites house offices, organizations, families
and more frequently apartments and condo conversions.
Condos in Watertown run the range of most anyplace else in
Boston. There appears to be more newer developments of one and two
bedroom units than conversions of apartments, duplexes and older
homes. They offer porches and decks, along with pools, tennis courts,
and exercise facilities. Kitchens come with granite counters and
stainless steel appliances just like larger units. It appears that
single professionals in Watertown are in growing demand and so are
housing opportunities that will satisfy them.
Larger, higher end condominiums have been developed on Pleasant St
close to the Waltham side. They offer three or more bedrooms with a
unique set of amenities. They are priced up to a half a million or
more, resplendent with amenities: kitchens in cherry paneling, hard
wood floors, gas fire places, granite countertops, stainless steel
appliances, Jacuzzi tubs, pools, tennis courts, separate showers,
vaulted ceilings, attached two car garages and more. Town homes and
ranch style homes at the high end are also appearing in open spaces.
Watertown Square still houses a lot of the historic shopping and
business but increasing developments have long since placed activity
in other areas like Pleasant St and other expanding neighborhoods. It
isn't just a younger crowd of working residents staking a claim to
condo mania but empty nesters, baby boomers, investors and second
home buyers and for many a condo in Watertown is still a pretty good
choice. |
