About this home

This spacious nine room, brick, clapboard and slate cape-style home with a two car garage is beautifully sited on a generous, lush, well landscaped lot in the Chestnut Hill Village of Newton. Built in 1938, the house is rich in architectural detail with bull's eye glass, fluted trim, crown moldings, French doors and raised paneling. The entry foyer is gracious with a large window which highlights the turned staircase. The updated kitchen with custom white cabinets and granite counter tops overlooks the rear terrace. There are four bedrooms and three and one half baths. Located just off Commonwealth Avenue, minutes to Boston and the Chestnut Hill shops.
