Significant price reduction!! Sellers have found desirable housing! Come and see this well maintained home in a wonderful neighborhood. This lovely house is conveniently located and has great potential to be updated. The floor plan allows for many possibilities. In addition to the three bedrooms on the second floor there is a fourth bonus room. This terrific house will meet the needs of many buyers.
This is a nice Colonial home built in 1920. It's less than a half mile from Newton City Hall, Nonantum Library and a bus line. It has an updated kitchen, which while not a fresh renovation is very tasteful and features granite countertops and built...
in storage. The rest of the home is more original with wallpapered rooms and hardwood floors and some carpeted areas. The heat and hot water are gas and the boiler and hot water heater appear to be fairly new. The home does share driveway access with some homes behind it but has a nice ard and deck in the back.
