"Breathtakingly beautiful"are the most accurate words to describe the views from this property.Situated on a rise overlooking the Charles River, with spectacular panoramas of water and nature,you will find endless enjoyment in "just being home."Enjoy bird watching,skating in winter, boating,and walking throughout the year.This lovely 3-bedroom Colonial includes a first-floor kitchen/family room with skylights and picture windows creating a sense of spaciousness and connection to the outside vistas, and the screen porch and deck on either side accentuate this experience.Upstairs is a lovely Master Suite with a dressing room and full bath,opening to a balcony,taking you even higher into the wonders of the setting.In addition, one of the other bedrooms has its own private office, and the lower level includes a multi-purpose large finished room that opens directly to the backyard.A stunning home in an amazing setting in one of Newton's best locations should not be missed.Truly a rare find.
