This 2-bed, 2-bath single-family ranch (1,729 sqft) is well-positioned in Waltham's highly competitive market, where median sale prices have surged to $850K and inventory remains low. At $405/sqft, the property is priced below the local median ($455/sqft), offering strong comparative value despite being slightly larger than most comps and featuring an updated interior and finished basement. With only 8 days on market, its exposure is in line with area trends, and similar single-family homes are moving quickly, often with multiple offers[1][2][3].
Maintain current pricing to encourage competitive bids, but consider minor cosmetic upgrades (landscaping, paint) to further differentiate. Emphasize the finished walk-out basement and ADU potential in marketing. Target commuters and buyers seeking flexible living space. Expect a 2-4 week time-to-close, but prepare for swift action due to sustained buyer demand; listing in early fall aligns well with active market cycles.
