About this home

This gracious, commanding Colonial has been enjoyed, taken care of, and enhanced by the same family for over 50 years and is now ready for its next residents. With over 5,000 square feet living space and a 0.43 acre lot, this home is nestled in a coveted neighborhood between Newton Centre and Newton Highlands, two doors from Crystal Lake, and has almost immediate access to the Green line MBTA subway stop to Boston and major commuting routes. Key features include: a deep, covered porch spanning the entire front of the home with direct access to the living and dining rooms (both truly entertainment-size) through French doors; a large, unfussy, but elegant foyer; four fireplaces; 5 bedrooms; multiple bathrooms; multiple other rooms providing flexibility for various uses; and an enormous, finished game room in the basement. This is a special, rare offering -- not to be missed.
