About this home

Ideally situated in Newton Centre, this beautifully updated Victorian-era residence blends timeless character with modern comforts. Featuring a steeply pitched roofline, the home welcomes you with a charming porch that opens into a gracious foyer. From there, step into a spacious dining room and an oversized living room, both adorned with original moldings. The renovated eat-in kitchen, with custom cabinetry, opens to a deck overlooking a lush, landscaped backyard with mature plantings. An elegant staircase leads to the second floor comprised of a primary bedroom, three additional bedrooms, and a tastefully updated bathroom. The third floor offers two more large bedrooms, including one with a Palladian window, and an additional full bathroom. Enhancements include new roof, newer windows, gleaming hardwood floors, central air conditioning, and an electric car charger. Conveniently located near the T, major commuter routes, top-rated elementary schools, and vibrant shops and restaurants.
