National Register Listed Colonial in Watertown

A historic artifact just minutes from Watertown’s center. 79 Deforest Street is a 1778 Colonial listed on the National Register of Historic Places with New England architecture and character.

Set on 0.43 acres with old stone walls and a private drive, the 2,948-square-foot home unfolds with four bedrooms and 1.5 baths across two stories of classic proportions. Inside, wide-plank hardwood floors and extensive custom built-ins speak to the house’s heritage, while two fireplaces anchor relaxed living and gathering spaces. 

There’s a formal living room with a fireplace and a spacious dining room open to a stone patio, a family room with a second fireplace, and a sunroom off the kitchen with garden views and seasonal light. The eat-in kitchen, refreshed with newer appliances including a gas cooktop and dishwasher, balances practical function with historic charm, and an upper-level bonus room provides flexible space ideal for an office, studio, or quiet retreat.
