Step into timeless charm at 18 Balder Rd, a beautifully preserved 4-bedroom home that blends vintage character with warm vibes. The house is located near the Worcester/Holden line in a picturesque tree-lined neighborhood. The home is located close to shopping and the heart of Worcester; near hospitals, universities, and more. It is a short walk to the Grammar school and Middle school. Inside, wood trim, hardwood flooring that is currently preserved under wall to wall carpets, and period details highlight the craftmanship of a bygone era. The modern kitchen compliments the design of the home. The spacious yard has plenty of room for gatherings, recreational play, pets, and a garden. The 3 bedrooms on the second floor and 1 on the first floor gives you the opportunity to have remote working spaces. Located close to Worcester’s Lake Beach where you can swim, kayak, and fish. A rare find that offers both tranquility and convenience.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
