This beautifully updated two-family home in an ideal West Newton location is perfect for owner occupants and investors alike. The meticulous property invites you in with stone walls, lush plantings, patios, and landscape lighting. Inside, you will find two spacious and bright units each featuring hardwood floors, a gas fireplace, a sunroom, an updated eat-in kitchen, a tiled bathroom, a private enclosed porch and rear deck, and in-unit laundry. The 1930 craftsmanship has been wonderfully maintained including wood moldings, glass knobs, and built-in cabinets. On the first floor, Unit 1 has two bedrooms and one bathroom. Upstairs, Unit 2 includes three bedrooms, one bathroom, and access to the walk-up unfinished attic. A large basement, two-car garage, and four driveway parking spaces complete the property. The home will be delivered vacant, it has solar panels and separately metered electricity and gas, and both hot water heaters were replaced last year. You’ve found a solid investment!
