For more than a century, 28 Green Street has overlooked one of Needham’s most picturesque settings- the Needham Golf Club. Built in 1914 and recently restored, this distinguished Victorian blends original character with thoughtful updates for today’s lifestyle. Sun-filled rooms include an inviting living room with fireplace and a cherry-paneled library with custom built-ins and a second fireplace. At the center of the home, a custom eat-in kitchen with all-new THOR appliances combines style and functionality. A grand staircase leads to the second floor, featuring the primary suite, two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and laundry, while two more spacious bedrooms and a half bath are located on the third floor. Outside, a welcoming front porch, new patio, and two-car garage complete the property. Ideally located just moments from the train, 28 Green Street offers a rare opportunity to own a beautifully restored home in a truly special Needham setting.
