Watertown Massachusetts Real Estate

Watertown is a beautiful town a mere six miles northwest of Boston. While drawing on the economic and cultural viability of Boston, Watertown maintains a charm all its own. Part of this is due to its prime location on the Charles River, with all the traditional New England beauty that it provides.

Watertown real estate occupies just over four square miles, yet is home to almost 33,000 people. Despite its dense population, Watertown has a range of open spaces and incredible sites. You can lounge on a riverbed or enjoy any one of the 13 town parks. They range in size from a one-acre playground to a 14 acre park. You can explore the natural beauty of New England without ever leaving the town.

For the athletically inclined, try out each of the 16 tennis or 15 basketball courts. There are even two street hockey courts so you can try your skills on wheels. During the chillier months, the skate park is ideal for all skill levels. When it heats up, take a dip in one of the town’s outdoor pools.

If you want a pleasant stroll without the challenge of skating or swimming, try the Charles River Walkway. You’ll see amazing plants and animals on this three-mile stroll, and you can even cross the river and complete your walk on the opposite side of the river. 

Another source of pride in Watertown is the diverse ethnic and cultural heritage of its residents. You’ll find strong ties to Armenian, Irish, Italian, Canadian, and Greek histories, as well as a variety of other cultures. You can try authentic dishes from these communities or many other local businesses in the area.
