A waterfront community in Waltham

Angleside is a tucked-away Waltham community right on the Charles River. Bordering the nationally recognized Brandeis University on the north side, this quiet retreat is home to business headquarters, college residence halls, apartment complexes and the Angleside Peninsula Subdivision, a pocket of about 30 waterfront homes tucked behind towering pines and narrow streets shaded by overhead canopies. Aside from its riverfront and tranquil character, Angleside also has an MBTA commuter rail station. With the commuter rail making it possible to access Boston in 5 train stops and the proximity of the freeway, Angleside is desirable for homebuyers who need to regularly traverse to the city while wanting a quiet, waterfront escape at home.

The village of Angleside makes up the city of Waltham in Massachusetts.

Peaceful retreats on the Charles River

When driving down the community’s winding streets that run alongside the Charles River, charming Cape Cods and sprawling modern homes are often covered by dense and leafy trees, creating a quaint, tucked-away setting. Architectural styles run the gamut from cottages and ranch styles to Colonial Revivals and split-levels. While some properties may date to the 1950s, larger houses over 3,000 square feet with open floor plans can be built as recently as in the past two decades. Smaller homes around 2,000 square feet usually list for around $1 million, with several estate properties over 4,000 square feet fetching over $2 million. Lot sizes are often around a quarter-acre, and many have backyard decks, direct water access or views of the Charles River. “The market in Angleside has very low inventory right now,” says Natalie Marsh, a Boston native Realtor at Compass with over 15 years of experience. “When something comes on the market, especially if the price is right, it flies.”

Fox Park--a hidden pocket park right in Angleside

Angleside has easy access to the Charles River and lots of green space where residents can enjoy outdoor activities. Fox Park is the community’s hidden secret. This small park, located on the Charles River, isn’t often frequented by those outside of the neighborhood; it has a 1-mile-long hike trail and space for walking, running, or picnicking. Newton Boathouse, a wood and stone building that peeks through the surrounding forest and offers a 6-mile stretch of flatwater, has kayak and canoe equipment rentals, or residents can opt to store their boats here in a private, secure setting. Roberts, the community’s next-door neighbor, is home to Bobby Connors Playground, which has many play structures, a splash pad and a basketball court. Numerous golf clubs and other parks surround the area, such as The Cove, a public space in Newtown with a baseball field and pickleball courts, making it easy to escape into the peaceful outdoors.

Navigating into Boston

Home to the Brandeis/Roberts commuter rail station and easy access to Interstate 95, Angleside is an ideal spot for commuters. Boston, Cambridge and the Boston Logan International Airport are about 15 miles west via Interstate 90. However, rush hour traffic can cause extensive delays and prolong the commute time to over an hour. Many people opt for the commuter rail and take the Fitchburg Line, which can get to Boston in 5 stops. Mass General Brigham Healthcare Center (Waltham) is 4 miles north, and the neighborhood is car-dependent.

Brandeis Station gives students in Angleside easy access to the city of Boston.
