Situated above the street on a rock ledge, this bright, airy, commuter-friendly 2 bed, 1.5 bath single family rental offers a private spot in a neighborhood setting, and cool relaxing spot to unwind that's still close to everything Waltham has to offer.

Enter into a small vestibule that opens onto a living and dining area enhanced by cathedral ceilings made more delightful by way of 2 skylights and a rock-faced decorative fireplace and chimney. Immediately to the left is a hallway, down which are located a large bedroom with a walk-in closet, an oversized bathroom with tub and deluxe shower room, and a second bedroom that's currently being used as an in-home gym.

Immediately off the dining area is a full size cook's kitchen, with gas stove, plenty of cupboard space and work areas, and dishwasher. Through the kitchen, a door to the right leads out to the back patio bounded at the back by a rock wall and grass and gardens at both ends. To the left is the stairway to the full finished basement with 4 substantial storage closets, a mudroom, and two sizable rooms that can be used for offices, guest rooms, or set up (as one is now) for a home theatre. The basement is completed by a half-bath in which is located a full-sized washer and dryer.

Central A/C, parking for 3 cars. Water and Sewer, landscaping and snow removal are included in the rent. Because of the solar panels, electricity is included in the rent up to a monthly ceiling to be negotiated with the owners.

Lexington Street is 3 minutes away, which connects to Rte. 2, Lexington, and Waltham town center. Local market's include Star Market on Lexington Street and Hanaford's Market and a new super-sized Market Basket on Main Street.
