About this home

Not your typical Needham hilltop retreat! This home, perched on Bird's Hill, enjoys one of the highest elevations and some of the best views in all of Needham. The new owner will have the opportunity to admire incredible sunsets from an outdoor deck, far up the embankment from Wachusett (the front of the house is on Alpine Ter). Master bedroom. Hardwoods. There is a sizable finished lower level which has huge windows and is completely above grade on the house's west side.
