What's your Watertown home worth?

Much of Watertown was built out in the early 20th century, and the two-family house is everywhere, often a stacked up-down layout, alongside single-family Colonials, Victorians and smaller Capes. Some of the larger single-families sit on the streets around Oakley Country Club and on the higher ground near the Belmont line. Recent construction is concentrated in the East End and along Pleasant Street and Arsenal Street, where former industrial and commercial sites have become apartment, condo and lab buildings, including Arsenal Yards.

Two-families here are bought as whole buildings, as condos, or as an owner unit plus a rental, and buyers should confirm which arrangement the paperwork actually supports. Without a subway stop, distance to Watertown Square or a frequent bus line counts for a lot, as does off-street parking. Properties close to the Charles are worth checking against flood maps.
