This classic Gambrel colonial is one of the most spacious single-family homes on the Watertown real estate market today with nearly 2,000 square feet of living space. Also looking for modernization and sustainability? This home also satisfies those requirements with its impeccably maintained status and numerous valuable updates that include new granite counters, stainless steel appliances, double-glazed windows, a forced hot water heating system and a seven-year young architectural roof. Location a priority? This property is sited in the highly desirable Oakley Country Club neighborhood. Now for the details.

The first level includes a lovely 23 x 13 front-to-back living room with period millwork and double-sided fireplace and leads into a charming 18 x 8 square foot year-round sunroom and three-season porch with bead board, both drenched in natural sunlight from an abundance of windows that overlook the picturesque, well-manicured landscape. It also offers a 13 x 13 square foot formal dining area with custom cabinetry, a 17 x 11 square foot fire-placed family room and a 17 x 10 square foot eat-in kitchen recently updated with premier materials and appliances.

The second level hosts a beautiful 17 x 11 square foot master bedroom, three additional bedrooms at 13 x 13, 12 x 11 and 10 x 9 square feet and a full family bath.
