The Lanes combines quiet, tree-lined streets with quick access to everything Waltham offers. Bordered by green space and commuter routes, residents can head out for a short hike at Beaver Brook Reservation or a skyline view from Prospect Hill Park, and hop over to nearby Belmont, Lexington, and Newton for additional shops and cafés.
Weekends here have a relaxed cadence: bike the riverside path within the Charles River Reservation, tour the working farm and Federal-era mansion at Gore Place, or wander the woodland grounds at Stonehurst, the Robert Treat Paine Estate. Moody Street’s indie restaurants and the city’s brewery and coffee scene keep date nights and meetups close to home.
Families appreciate the strong community focus of Waltham Public Schools, with new facilities and programs that support learners of all ages. Commuters benefit from service on the MBTA Fitchburg Line from Waltham Station and straightforward drives to Route 2 and I‑95/128, making daily travel to Cambridge, Boston, or the 128 tech corridor refreshingly manageable.
Housing in The Lanes ranges from classic capes and colonials to thoughtfully updated ranches and townhomes, often with yards made for cookouts and play. Whether you’re buying or preparing to sell in The Lanes, Agent Pronto can connect you with a local expert who knows the market and gets results.
