This renovated Newton Highlands gem is across the street from Cold Spring Park and under a half mile to the Highlands village, T, Crystal Lake and Whole Foods. Comprehensively renovated from 2000-2003, this striking home offers sun-filled living spaces and a sensible floor plan with a first level bedroom suite. The foyer opens to a spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace and a wonderful dining room. Off the dining room is the amazing kitchen with custom cabinets, stainless appliances, abundant storage and a secondary entry that leads to the front deck and driveway. Open to the kitchen is the gorgeous family room addition with vaulted ceilings, a cozy gas stove and French doors to the back deck, patio, garden and yard. Privately located off the living room is the primary bedroom suite including a large bedroom, an en suite bathroom & an office/nursery. On the 2nd level are two more great bedrooms and the updated 2nd full bath. Tidy unfinished basement with laundry & storage.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
