Waltham Watch Company
The Charles Byam House stands in southern Waltham, south of the former Waltham Watch Company factory, on the south side of Crescent Street. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, with a hip roof and clapboarded exterior. It has a three-part facade, with a projecting central section topped by a gable with a window in the point. The eaves have brackets at the corners, a detail repeated on the single-story porch that lines the front of the house.
