Lofts in Waltham’s former watch factory

Watch Factory Lofts is a rental community at 185 Crescent Street. The historic factory conversion places apartments beside the Charles River rather than in a standard suburban apartment block.

Current property information includes one-, two- and three-bedroom plans, broader than the original guide’s one-bedroom emphasis. Some homes use two levels and distinctive loft arrangements.

  • Historic factory conversion
  • One- to three-bedroom layouts
  • In-home washer and dryer
  • Charles River setting

Brick, beams and varied floor plans

The original guide describes exposed brick, wood beams, oversized windows and granite kitchen counters. These details vary across the converted building and help make individual plans distinct.

Check stairs, ceiling heights, bedroom enclosure and storage on the exact plan. A loft’s open area should not automatically be treated as an extra bedroom or office.

Fitness, parking and storage

Community features include fitness facilities and off-street parking. The original guide also describes bicycle and kayak storage, which should be confirmed for current access and availability.

The property is pet-friendly subject to current rules. Ask about parking costs, storage charges and any restrictions before comparing the total monthly cost of different homes.

Crescent Street and the river paths

The Charles River setting provides access to Waltham’s waterfront surroundings, with Moody Street dining and local destinations nearby. Check the actual path and station connections for your routine.

Include budget, bedroom needs and move-in timing in your inquiry. Mention whether avoiding stairs, having an enclosed bedroom or obtaining storage is important.
