Stately West Newton Victorian minutes from Peirce School on coveted tree-lined Berkeley Street. Upon entering, you are greeted by traditional details of yesteryear. The grand foyer leads to the formal living and dining rooms complete with bay windows and fireplaces. Connected by the butler's pantry, the bright and recently renovated eat-in-kitchen is truly a chef's dream with stainless steel appliances, ample cabinetry, and gracious island framed by pendant lighting, grounding the open-concept space with adjoining family room. A tiled mudroom with private entrance, powder room, and access to the back deck round out this level. The second level includes the generous master bedroom with built-ins and ensuite bath as well as two equally-sized bedrooms, full bath, and laundry room. The third level includes two additional bedrooms with built-ins and a full bath with a beautiful skylight. And for additional activities, look no further than the Neighborhood Club directly across the street!
