About this home
Realtors often say a house is "one of a kind". In this case it's true; this house is the only one of its kind built in Needham. Customized by its first owner, you’ll find beautiful detail work throughout. The recessed front door of this elegant 1937 colonial opens into a generous foyer with a lovely, curved staircase. The first floor has high ceilings and a wonderful floor plan; perfect for entertaining. Groups both large and small are easily accommodated. The second floor features four well appointed corner bedrooms, including the main bedroom with an en suite bath. The spacious second floor landing is perfect for a reading nook, office space or homework area. The third floor is accessed through a glass door, the perfect teenage bedroom/hangout or additional office space. The home has been well loved and well maintained by the current owners, they have made wonderful memories here and hope the next owners will, too.
